Felix Wilhelm discovered that FreeTDS incorrectly handled certain types after a protocol downgrade. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause FreeTDS to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
