CVE-2023-23916

An allocation of resources without limits or throttling vulnerability exists in curl v7.88.0 based on the "chained" HTTP compression algorithms, meaning that a server response can be compressed multiple times and potentially with differentalgorithms. The number of acceptable "links" in this...

K11274054: GNU C Library vulnerability CVE-2018-6551

Security Advisory Description The malloc implementation in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6, from version 2.24 to 2.26 on powerpc, and only in version 2.26 on i386, did not properly handle malloc calls with arguments close to SIZEMAX and could return a pointer to a heap region that is smaller...

K16366: GNU C Library (glibc) vulnerability CVE-2015-1472

Security Advisory Description stdio-common/vfscanf.c has an ADDW macro that tries to determine whether to use malloc or alloca for allocations. But in the malloc case, it only allocates newsize bytes instead of the required newsize sizeof CHART. Thus the allocated buffer gets overrun in the...

K13288506: Wget vulnerability CVE-2017-13090

Security Advisory Description The retr.c:fdreadbody function is called when processing OK responses. When the response is sent chunked in wget before 1.19.2, the chunk parser uses strtol to read each chunk's length, but doesn't check that the chunk length is a non-negative number. The code then...

UBUNTU-CVE-2022-45587

Stack overflow vulnerability in function gmalloc in goo/gmem.cc in xpdf 4.04, allows local attackers to cause a denial of service...

CURL-CVE-2023-23916 HTTP multi-header compression denial of service

curl supports "chained" HTTP compression algorithms, meaning that a server response can be compressed multiple times and potentially with different algorithms. The number of acceptable "links" in this "decompression chain" was capped, but the cap was implemented on a per-header basis allowing a...

SUSE CVE-2009-1255

The processstat function in 1 Memcached before 1.2.8 and 2 MemcacheDB 1.2.0 discloses a the contents of /proc/self/maps in response to a stats maps command and b memory-allocation statistics in response to a stats malloc command, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information such ...

SUSE CVE-2009-1494

The processstat function in Memcached 1.2.8 discloses memory-allocation statistics in response to a stats malloc command, which allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information by sending this command to the daemon's TCP port...

SUSE CVE-2012-2673

Multiple integer overflows in the 1 GCgenericmalloc and 2 calloc functions in malloc.c, and the 3 GCgenericmallocignoreoffpage function in mallocx.c in Boehm-Demers-Weiser GC libgc before 7.2 make it easier for context-dependent attackers to perform memory-related attacks such as buffer overflows...

SUSE CVE-2012-2677

Integer overflow in the orderedmalloc function in boost/pool/pool.hpp in Boost Pool before 3.9 makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to perform memory-related attacks such as buffer overflows via a large memory chunk size value, which causes less memory to be allocated than expected...

SUSE CVE-2012-4424

Stack-based buffer overflow in string/strcolll.c in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.17 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long string that triggers a malloc failure and use of the alloca function...

SUSE CVE-2013-4332

Multiple integer overflows in malloc/malloc.c in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.18 and earlier allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service heap corruption via a large value to the 1 pvalloc, 2 valloc, 3 posixmemalign, 4 memalign, or 5 alignedalloc functions...

SUSE CVE-2014-6051

Integer overflow in the MallocFrameBuffer function in vncviewer.c in LibVNCServer 0.9.9 and earlier allows remote VNC servers to cause a denial of service crash and possibly execute arbitrary code via an advertisement for a large screen size, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow...

SUSE CVE-2014-6052

The HandleRFBServerMessage function in libvncclient/rfbproto.c in LibVNCServer 0.9.9 and earlier does not check certain malloc return values, which allows remote VNC servers to cause a denial of service application crash or possibly execute arbitrary code by specifying a large screen size in a 1...

SUSE CVE-2014-8091

X.Org X Window System aka X11 and X X11R5 and X.Org Server aka xserver and xorg-server before 1.16.3, when using SUN-DES-1 Secure RPC authentication credentials, does not check the return value of a malloc call, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service NULL pointer dereference a...

SUSE CVE-2014-9628

The MP4ReadBoxString function in modules/demux/mp4/libmp4.c in VideoLAN VLC media player before 2.1.6 allows remote attackers to trigger an unintended zero-size malloc and conduct buffer overflow attacks, and consequently execute arbitrary code, via a box size of 7...

SUSE CVE-2017-9815

In LibTIFF 4.0.7, the TIFFReadDirEntryLong8Array function in libtiff/tifdirread.c mishandles a malloc operation, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service memory leak within the function TIFFmalloc in tifunix.c via a crafted file...

SUSE CVE-2017-17426

The malloc function in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.26 could return a memory block that is too small if an attempt is made to allocate an object whose size is close to SIZEMAX, potentially leading to a subsequent heap overflow. This occurs because the per-thread cache aka tcache feature...
