Title
MongoDB v8.3.0 Integer Underflow in LMDB mdb_load
Summary
This integer underflow vulnerability enables heap metadata corruption and information disclosure through carefully crafted LMDB dump files. *Impact:* - *Denial of Service*: Immediate crash (confirmed) - *Information Disclosure*: Heap metadata leak via OOB read Root Cause:The readline() function fails to validate that the input line length is non-zero before performing decrement operations, causing integer underflow. An attacker can craft a malicious LMDB dump file containing empty lines that trigger the vulnerability when processed by mdb_load: *Output:* ./mdb_load -T /tmp/lmdb_asan < /root/wiredtiger/third_party/openldap_liblmdb/findings/default/crashes/id:000007,sig:06,src:000012+000030,time:43032,execs:522id:000007,sig:06,src:000012+000030,time:43032,execs:52230,op:splice,rep:13 mdb_load.c:214:9: runtime error: addition of unsigned offset to 0x521000000100 overflowed to 0x5210000000ff SUMMARY: UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer: undefined-behavior mdb_load.c:214:9 _______________________________________________ Sent through the Full Disclosure mailing list https://nmap.org/mailman/listinfo/fulldisclosure Web Archives & RSS: https://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/
