collectd: Infinite loop due to incorrect interaction of parse_packet() and parse_part_sign_sha256() functions

collectd contains an infinite loop due to how the parsepacket and parsepartsignsha256 functions interact. If an instance of collectd is configured with "SecurityLevel None" and empty "AuthFile" options, an attacker can send crafted UDP packets that trigger the infinite loop, causing a denial of...

DEBIAN-CVE-2016-6254

Heap-based buffer overflow in the parsepacket function in network.c in collectd before 5.4.3 and 5.x before 5.5.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service daemon crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted network packet...

ALPINE-CVE-2016-6254

Heap-based buffer overflow in the parsepacket function in network.c in collectd before 5.4.3 and 5.x before 5.5.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service daemon crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted network packet...

UBUNTU-CVE-2016-6254

Heap-based buffer overflow in the parsepacket function in network.c in collectd before 5.4.3 and 5.x before 5.5.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service daemon crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted network packet...

collectd 'parse_packet()' function heap buffer overflow vulnerability

collectd is a daemon process used to collect system performance and provide a mechanism for storing different values in various storage methods. The collectd 'parsepacket' function is vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow vulnerability due to the program incorrectly handling incoming network...

PT-2012-1788

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FFmpeg versions prior to 0.8.3 Description The issue is related to an integer underflow in the asfrtp parse packet function, which can be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted ASF packet. Recommendations For...

security flaw

parse-packet.c in GnuPG gpg 1.4.3 and 1.9.20, and earlier versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service gpg crash and possibly overwrite memory via a message packet with a large length long user ID string, which could lead to an integer overflow, as demonstrated using the...
