FKIE_CVE-2026-25791

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-02-09 21:15 - Updated: 2026-02-23 17:42
Severity ?
7.5 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Summary
Sliver is a command and control framework that uses a custom Wireguard netstack. Prior to 1.7.0, the DNS C2 listener accepts unauthenticated TOTP bootstrap messages and allocates server-side DNS sessions without validating OTP values, even when EnforceOTP is enabled. Because sessions are stored without a cleanup/expiry path in this flow, an unauthenticated remote actor can repeatedly create sessions and drive memory exhaustion. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.7.0.

Antes de la versi\u00f3n 1.7.0, el oyente DNS C2 acepta mensajes de arranque TOTP no autenticados y asigna sesiones DNS del lado del servidor sin validar los valores OTP, incluso cuando EnforceOTP est\u00e1 habilitado. Dado que las sesiones se almacenan sin una ruta de limpieza/caducidad en este flujo, un actor remoto no autenticado puede crear sesiones repetidamente y provocar el agotamiento de la memoria. Esta vulnerabilidad se corrige en la versi\u00f3n 1.7.0."
