CVSS v3.1 |
| An issue was discovered in the IPv6 protocol specification, related to ICMP Packet Too Big (PTB) messages. (The scope of this CVE is all affected IPv6 implementations from all vendors.) The security implications of IP fragmentation have been discussed at length in [RFC6274] and [RFC7739]. An attacker can leverage the generation of IPv6 atomic fragments to trigger the use of fragmentation in an arbitrary IPv6 flow (in scenarios in which actual fragmentation of packets is not needed) and can subsequently perform any type of fragmentation-based attack against legacy IPv6 nodes that do not implement [RFC6946]. That is, employing fragmentation where not actually needed allows for fragmentation-based attack vectors to be employed, unnecessarily. We note that, unfortunately, even nodes that already implement [RFC6946] can be subject to DoS attacks as a result of the generation of IPv6 atomic fragments. Let us assume that Host A is communicating with Host B and that, as a result of the widespread dropping of IPv6 packets that contain extension headers (including fragmentation) [RFC7872], some intermediate node filters fragments between Host B and Host A. If an attacker sends a forged ICMPv6 PTB error message to Host B, reporting an MTU smaller than 1280, this will trigger the generation of IPv6 atomic fragments from that moment on (as required by [RFC2460]). When Host B starts sending IPv6 atomic fragments (in response to the received ICMPv6 PTB error message), these packets will be dropped, since we previously noted that IPv6 packets with extension headers were being dropped between Host B and Host A. Thus, this situation will result in a DoS scenario. Another possible scenario is that in which two BGP peers are employing IPv6 transport and they implement Access Control Lists (ACLs) to drop IPv6 fragments (to avoid control-plane attacks). If the aforementioned BGP peers drop IPv6 fragments but still honor received ICMPv6 PTB error messages, an attacker could easily attack the corresponding peering session by simply sending an ICMPv6 PTB message with a reported MTU smaller than 1280 bytes. Once the attack packet has been sent, the aforementioned routers will themselves be the ones dropping their own traffic. |
| libgedit.a in GNOME gedit through 3.22.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a file that begins with many '\0' characters. |
| Apache OpenMeetings 1.0.0 doesn't check contents of files being uploaded. An attacker can cause a denial of service by uploading multiple large files to the server. |
| NTP before 4.2.8p6 and 4.3.0 before 4.3.90 allows a remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack exhaustion) via an ntpdc relist command, which triggers recursive traversal of the restriction list. |
| Memory leak in decode_line_info in dwarf2.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted ELF file. |
| An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 10.3.3 is affected. watchOS before 3.2.3 is affected. The issue involves the "Messages" component. It allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and application crash). |
| Designate 2015.1.0 through 1.0.0.0b1 as packaged in OpenStack Kilo does not enforce RecordSets per domain, and Records per RecordSet quotas when processing an internal zone file transfer, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted resource record set. |
| In ImageMagick before 6.9.8-5 and 7.x before 7.0.5-6, there is a memory leak in the ReadMATImage function in coders/mat.c. |
| The ReadOneMNGImage function in coders/png.c in ImageMagick before 6.9.9-0 and 7.x before 7.0.6-1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (large loop and CPU consumption) via a crafted file. |
| The SdpContents::Session::Medium::parse function in resip/stack/SdpContents.cxx in reSIProcate 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering many media connections. |
| The ReadSCREENSHOTImage function in coders/screenshot.c in ImageMagick before 7.0.6-1 has memory leaks, causing denial of service. |
| An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. macOS before 10.13.1 is affected. The issue involves the "Quick Look" component. It allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted Office document. |
| The ReadTGAImage function in coders\tga.c in ImageMagick 7.0.5-6 has a memory leak vulnerability that can cause memory exhaustion via invalid colors data in the header of a TGA or VST file. |
| The ReadMATImage function in coders\mat.c in ImageMagick 7.0.5-6 has a memory leak vulnerability that can cause memory exhaustion via a crafted MAT file, related to incorrect ordering of a SetImageExtent call. |
| Node.js 4.0.0, 4.1.0, and 4.1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service. |
| kittoframework kitto version 0.5.1 is vulnerable to memory exhaustion in the router resulting in DoS |
