The vulnerability of the BIO_f_linebuffer() function in the OpenSSL library, which allows a hacker to cause a service failure

The vulnerability of the BIOflinebuffer function in the OpenSSL library is related to the situation where the operation’s output goes beyond the buffer’s boundaries into memory. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to cause a service failure...

CVE-2025-68160

Issue summary: Writing large, newline-free data into a BIO chain using the line-buffering filter where the next BIO performs short writes can trigger a heap-based out-of-bounds write. Impact summary: This out-of-bounds write can cause memory corruption which typically results in a crash, leading ...

Heap out-of-bounds write in BIO_f_linebuffer on short writes

Issue summary: Writing large, newline-free data into a BIO chain using the line-buffering filter where the next BIO performs short writes can trigger a heap-based out-of-bounds write. Impact summary: This out-of-bounds write can cause memory corruption which typically results in a crash, leading ...
