CVE-2010-1853

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the tr_magnetParse function in libtransmission/magnet.c in Transmission 1.91 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted magnet URL with a large number of (1) tr or (2) ws links.

CVE-2012-4037

CVE-2012-6129

Stack-based buffer overflow in utp.cpp in libutp, as used in Transmission before 2.74 and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted "micro transport protocol packets."

CVE-2014-4909

Integer overflow in the tr_bitfieldEnsureNthBitAlloced function in bitfield.c in Transmission before 2.84 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted peer message, which triggers an out-of-bounds write.

CVE-2018-10756

Use-after-free in libtransmission/variant.c in Transmission before 3.00 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted torrent file.

CVE-2018-5702

Transmission through 2.92 relies on X-Transmission-Session-Id (which is not a forbidden header for Fetch) for access control, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary RPC commands, and consequently write to arbitrary files, via POST requests to /transmission/rpc in conjunction with a DNS ...
