CVE-2018-17974
Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.5)—
An issue was discovered in Tcpreplay 4.3.0 beta1. A heap-based buffer over-read was triggered in the function dlt_en10mb_encode() of the file plugins/dlt_en10mb/en10mb.c, due to inappropriate values in the function memmove(). The length (pktlen + ctx -> l2len) can be larger than source value (packet + ctx->l2len) because the function fails to ensure the length of a packet is valid. This leads to Denial of Service.

Se ha desencadenado una sobrelectura de búfer basada en memoria dinámica (heap) en la función dlt_en10mb_encode() del archivo plugins/dlt_en10mb/en10mb.c, debido a valores inapropiados en la función memmove(). La longitud (pktlen + ctx -> l2len) puede ser mayor que el valor de origen (packet + ctx->l2len) debido a que la función fracasa a la hora de asegurar que la longitud de un paquete sea válida.
