CVE-2020-14934

Estado: ModificadaCrítica (9.8)—

Buffer overflows were discovered in Contiki-NG 4.4 through 4.5, in the SNMP agent. The function parsing the received SNMP request does not verify the input message's requested variables against the capacity of the internal SNMP engine buffer. If the number of variables in the request exceeds the allocated buffer, a memory write out of the buffer boundaries occurs. This write operation provides a possibility to overwrite other variables allocated in the .bss section by the application. Because the sender of the frame is in control of the content that will be written beyond the buffer limits, and there is no strict process memory separation, this issue may allow overwriting of sensitive memory areas of an IoT device.

La función que analiza la petición SNMP recibida no verifica las variables solicitadas del mensaje de entrada contra la capacidad del búfer interno del motor SNMP. Si el número de variables en la petición supera el búfer asignado, se produce una escritura de la memoria fuera de los límites del búfer. Esta operación de escritura brinda la posibilidad de sobrescribir otras variables asignadas en la sección .bss por parte de la aplicación. Debido a que el remitente de la trama tiene el control del contenido que se escribirá más allá de los límites del búfer y no existe una separación estricta de la memoria del proceso, este problema puede permitir la sobrescritura de áreas de memoria confidencial de un dispositivo de IoT."
