Issue Overview: Integer overflow in malloc functions: 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 hea...

The vulnerability in the implementation of the malloc function in the library that handles system calls and core functions of glibc allows a attacker to trigger a service failure.

The vulnerability in the implementation of the malloc function in libraries that handle system calls and core functions of glibc arises from operations that go beyond the buffer boundaries in memory. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow a remote attacker to cause a service failure...

Design/Logic Flaw

Huawei DP300 V500R002C00 have a DoS vulnerability due to the lack of validation when the malloc is called. An authenticated local attacker can craft specific XML files to the affected products and parse this file, which result in DoS attacks...

CVE-2017-17148

Summary: CVE-2017-17148 affects Huawei DP300 V500R002C00. The issue is a DoS caused by lack of validation when malloc is called during XML parsing; an authenticated local attacker can craft specific XML files to trigger parsing and cause a denial of service. This is a local, low-privilege vector ...

389-ds-base: Authentication bypass due to lack of size check in slapi_ct_memcmp function in ch_malloc.c

It was found that 389-ds-base did not always handle internal hash comparison operations correctly during the authentication process. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could potentially use this flaw to bypass the authentication process under very rare and specific circumstances...

powerpc and Intel i386 GNU C Library Integer Overflow Vulnerability

The powerpc is a compact instruction set architecture CPU central processing unit.The Intel i386 is an x86 series CPU central processing unit from Intel Corporation.The GNU C Library aka glibc, libc6 is one of the open source, freeware C language compilers released under the LGPL license. An...

CVE-2018-6543

In GNU Binutils 2.30, there's an integer overflow in the function loadspecificdebugsection in objdump.c, which results in malloc with 0 size. A crafted ELF file allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service application crash or possibly have unspecified other impact...
