CVE-2026-102720: Out-of-bounds Read

A DHCP server, or anyone on the LAN who answers a DISCOVER first, can make the client read about a kilobyte past the end of the received message. The option walk keeps a pointer and an offset in step, and the only bound check uses the offset: c / addons/dhcp/nxddhcpclient.c:7538, 7572 / while i...

CVE-2026-57224

A flaw was found in Suricata. The DHCP and RDP parsers fail to record packet direction for stateless transactions. This allows a network sensor observing only one direction of traffic to accumulate an unbounded list of per-flow transactions. Consequently, this leads to increasing CPU and memory...

Cisco ThousandEyes Virtual Appliance DHCP Client Command Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Cisco ThousandEyes Virtual Appliance. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the processing of DHCP client configuration data. The issue results fro...

dracut: dracut: Root code execution via DHCP options command injection

A flaw was found in dracut. A remote attacker on the adjacent network can exploit this vulnerability by providing specially crafted DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol options, such as a malicious hostname, to a system using dracut's legacy DHCP path. These options are improperly handled and...

dracut: dracut: root code execution via unescaped error message written to sourced emergency hook script in die()

A flaw was found in dracut. The die error-handling function writes its message into a shell script under the initramfs emergency-hook directory without properly shell-quoting it. When the message contains data derived from the DHCP ROOTPATH option, an attacker on the adjacent network who controls...
