CVE-2026-48689
FastNetMon Community Edition through 1.2.9 contains an off-by-one heap-based buffer overflow in the dynamic_binary_buffer_t class (src/dynamic_binary_buffer.hpp). Five methods (append_dynamic_buffer, append_data_as_pointer, append_data_as_object_ptr, memcpy_from_ptr, memcpy_from_object_ptr) use an incorrect bounds check of the form 'if (offset + length > maximum_internal_storage_size + 1)' instead of the correct 'if (offset + length > maximum_internal_storage_size)'. This allows writing exactly one byte past the end of the heap-allocated buffer.

The class is used pervasively in BGP message encoding/decoding, NetFlow template processing, and Flow Spec NLRI construction. An attacker who can send network traffic (NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, or BGP) to a FastNetMon instance can trigger this overflow, potentially achieving arbitrary code execution by corrupting heap metadata. Notably, the append_byte() method uses the correct bounds check, confirming the inconsistency.

"value": "FastNetMon Community Edition hasta la versión 1.2.9 contiene un desbordamiento de búfer basado en montículo por un byte en la clase dynamic_binary_buffer_t (src/dynamic_binary_buffer.hpp). Cinco métodos (append_dynamic_buffer, append_data_as_pointer, append_data_as_object_ptr, memcpy_from_ptr, memcpy_from_object_ptr) utilizan una comprobación de límites incorrecta de la forma 'if (offset + length > maximum_internal_storage_size + 1)' en lugar de la correcta 'if (offset + length > maximum_internal_storage_size)'. Esto permite escribir exactamente un byte más allá del final del búfer asignado en el montículo. La clase se utiliza de forma generalizada en la codificación/decodificación de mensajes BGP, el procesamiento de plantillas NetFlow y la construcción de NLRI de Flow Spec. Un atacante que puede enviar tráfico de red (NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX o BGP) a una instancia de FastNetMon puede desencadenar este desbordamiento, logrando potencialmente ejecución de código arbitrario al corromper los metadatos del montículo. Cabe destacar que el método append_byte() utiliza la comprobación de límites correcta, confirmando la inconsistencia."
