Summary
zeroconf: Unvalidated rdlength in record payload readers allows LAN-local cache corruption via crafted mDNS packet
Details

Impact

_read_character_string and _read_string in src/zeroconf/_protocol/incoming.py sliced self.data[self.offset : self.offset + length] and advanced self.offset by the declared length without checking it against self._data_len. Python's slice silently returns fewer bytes when the end index runs past the buffer, so a record whose 16-bit RDLENGTH (RFC 1035 §3.2.1) over-advertised by tens of kilobytes was constructed from a truncated payload, appended to DNSIncoming._answers, and committed to the cache before any later parse failure surfaced. The follow-up _read_name for the next record then failed, but the corrupt record had already entered the answer list and propagated to DNSCache and ServiceInfo.

Any unauthenticated host on the local link (UDP/5353, 224.0.0.251 / ff02::fb) can multicast a single mDNS response carrying a TXT, HINFO, or A/AAAA record that advertises rdlength=65535 and only a handful of real payload bytes; consumers calling ServiceInfo.properties then parse the truncated bytes as if they matched the wire, and downstream integrations (Home Assistant and other zeroconf-driven discovery) trust the decoded record. The bug is parser-state desync rather than RCE, but it seeds the cache with attacker-shaped key/value and address records for a TTL window and is a building block for higher-impact chains.

The impact is likely lower than the other recently released advisories as there is no additional risk of OOM so the severity was manually set to low to override the score CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N (6.5, Medium) since that doesn't fully consider the mDNS threat model.

Patches

Fixed in zeroconf 0.149.16 (PR #1756). Note that this change originally intended to ship in 0.149.13 but we ran out of space on PyPI: see https://github.com/python-zeroconf/python-zeroconf/issues/1769

Upgrade to >= 0.149.16.

Workarounds

There is no in-process workaround; upgrading is the fix. Otherwise, restrict mDNS (UDP/5353) to trusted Layer-2 segments via AP client isolation, guest-network separation, or host firewall rules.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-04 12:30 – Updated: 2026-08-31 03:33
VLAI
Details

A heap buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the DTLS handshake fragment reassembly logic of GnuTLS. The issue arises in merge_handshake_packet() where incoming handshake fragments are matched and merged based solely on handshake type, without validating that the message_length field remains consistent across all fragments of the same logical message. An attacker can exploit this by sending crafted DTLS fragments with conflicting message_length values, causing the implementation to allocate a buffer based on a smaller initial fragment and subsequently write beyond its bounds using larger, inconsistent fragments. Because the merge operation does not enforce proper bounds checking against the allocated buffer size, this results in an out-of-bounds write on the heap. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable without authentication via the DTLS handshake path and can lead to application crashes or potential memory corruption.

7.5 (High)

Summary
rdiffweb's unlimited length email field can lead to DoS
Details

rdiffweb prior to 2.4.8 does not validate email length, allowing users to insert an email longer than 255 characters. If a user signs up with an email with a length of 1 million or more characters and logs in, withdraws, or changes their email, the server may cause denial of service due to overload. Version 2.4.8 sets length limits for username, email, and root directory.

Summary
Improper handling of NTS cookie length that could crash the ntpd-rs server
Details

Impact

ntpd-rs does not validate the length of NTS cookies in received NTP packets to the server. An attacker can crash the server by sending a specially crafted NTP packet containing a cookie shorter than what the server expects. The server also crashes when it is not configured to handle NTS packets.

ntpd-rs running purely as an ntp client is not affected.

Patches

The issue was caused by improper slice indexing. The indexing operations were replaced by safer alternatives that do not crash the ntpd-rs server process but instead properly handle the error condition. A patch was released in version 0.3.3

Workarounds

ntpd-rs running purely as an ntp client is not affected. By default, ntpd-rs packages are not configured to run as a server.

For machines where serving the time is required, there is no known workaround. Users are recommended to upgrade ntpd-rs as soon as possible.

Summary
OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation: CPU-mismatch fallback uses 256-byte buffer with 8KB size
Details

Summary

The per-CPU message-buffer fallback path uses a 256-byte backup buffer but preserves the original payload size, which can be up to 8KB. If a CPU mismatch occurs, OBI can read beyond the fallback buffer and leak adjacent memory into telemetry.

Details

https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ebpf-instrumentation/blob/032473449b53d9f02ec4619d4f5b84e6a81db362/bpf/common/http_buf_size.h#L4-L7

k_kprobes_http2_buf_size is defined as 256 bytes, the size of the fallback buffer.

https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ebpf-instrumentation/blob/032473449b53d9f02ec4619d4f5b84e6a81db362/bpf/common/msg_buffer.h#L12-L36

Introduces 8KB per-CPU buffer and 256-byte fallback_buf in msg_buffer_t, creating a size mismatch for fallback use.

https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ebpf-instrumentation/blob/032473449b53d9f02ec4619d4f5b84e6a81db362/bpf/generictracer/k_tracer.c#L370-L394

On CPU mismatch, fallback_bufis used but size is still set to m_buf->real_size (up to 8KB) and passed downstream.

https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ebpf-instrumentation/blob/032473449b53d9f02ec4619d4f5b84e6a81db362/bpf/generictracer/protocol_http.h#L412-L441

bytes_len (from m_buf->real_size) is used to read payload data from u_buf; if u_buf is the 256B fallback, this can over-read and leak memory into telemetry.

https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ebpf-instrumentation/blob/032473449b53d9f02ec4619d4f5b84e6a81db362/bpf/tpinjector/tpinjector.c#L192-L206

real_sizeis set up to 8192 bytes and stored with cpu_id; fallback_bufonly contains 256 bytes.

PoC

Local testing with an AddressSanitizer user-space PoC reproduced the same class of size-mismatch over-read as the vulnerable fallback-buffer path. That result is sufficient to ground the advisory in a fresh local reproduction even though the exact end-to-end eBPF path still depends on host BPF capabilities.

To reproduce the validated behavior locally:

  1. create a struct that models fallback_buf[256] and real_size
  2. populate only the 256-byte fallback buffer
  3. simulate the CPU mismatch path by using the fallback buffer as the source pointer while preserving a much larger real_size
  4. perform a read of real_size bytes from that 256-byte backing store under ASan

An equivalent reproducer is:

// save as /tmp/poc_msgbuf_oob.c
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

struct msg_buffer {
  unsigned char fallback_buf[256];
  uint16_t pos;
  uint16_t real_size;
  uint32_t cpu_id;
};

int main(void) {
  struct msg_buffer m = {0};
  unsigned char sink[8192];

  memset(m.fallback_buf, 'A', sizeof(m.fallback_buf));
  m.real_size = 4096;

  memcpy(sink, m.fallback_buf, m.real_size);
  printf("copied %u bytes from a 256-byte fallback buffer\n", m.real_size);
  return 0;
}

Compile and run with ASan:

cc -fsanitize=address -O1 -g -o /tmp/poc_msgbuf_oob /tmp/poc_msgbuf_oob.c
ASAN_OPTIONS=abort_on_error=1 /tmp/poc_msgbuf_oob

Expected result:

AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow or stack-buffer-overflow

That user-space PoC matches the size-mismatch condition in the vulnerable code path, even though the exact end-to-end eBPF runtime path still requires host BPF attach/load capability.

Impact

This is a confidentiality issue in the HTTP tracing path. The vulnerable read occurs in OBI's local fallback-buffer handling when context propagation is enabled, the tpinjector sock_msg path is active, HTTP large-buffer capture is configured with a non-zero size, and a CPU mismatch occurs between producer and consumer contexts. Under those conditions, OBI can over-read from the fallback buffer and export unrelated memory through telemetry.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-27 06:31 – Updated: 2026-04-27 06:31
VLAI
Details

An improper handling of the length parameter inconsistency vulnerability has been identified in Moxa’s Secure Router. Because of improper validation of length parameters in the HTTPS management interface, an unauthenticated remote attacker could send specially crafted requests that trigger a buffer overflow condition, causing the web service to become unresponsive. Successful exploitation may result in a denial-of-service condition requiring a device reboot to restore normal operation. While successful exploitation can severely impact the availability of the affected device, no impact to the confidentiality or integrity of the affected product has been identified. Additionally, no confidentiality, integrity, or availability impact to the subsequent system has been identified.

Mitigation
Implementation

When processing structured incoming data containing a size field followed by raw data, ensure that you identify and resolve any inconsistencies between the size field and the actual size of the data.

Mitigation
Implementation

Do not let the user control the size of the buffer.

Mitigation
Implementation

Validate that the length of the user-supplied data is consistent with the buffer size.

CAPEC-47: Buffer Overflow via Parameter Expansion

In this attack, the target software is given input that the adversary knows will be modified and expanded in size during processing. This attack relies on the target software failing to anticipate that the expanded data may exceed some internal limit, thereby creating a buffer overflow.
