Libslirp: libslirp: heap buffer overflow in dhcpv6/tftp response builders on small interface mtu
CVSS Score
7.4
EPSS Score
0.0%
EPSS Percentile
0th
A heap-based buffer overflow was found in the DHCPv6 and TFTP response builders of libslirp. When the host is configured with a small interface MTU, a guest-supplied DHCPv6 CLIENTID option or TFTP blksize option can overflow the reply buffer with attacker-controlled content and length, resulting in denial of service and potentially arbitrary code execution in the host process. The default interface MTU is not affected.
