UBUNTU-CVE-2017-7938 (CVE-2017-7938)

Vulnerability from osv_ubuntu – Published: 2017-04-20 14:59 – Updated: 2026-11-04 00:03 – Source website

Details

Stack-based buffer overflow in DMitry (Deepmagic Information Gathering Tool) version 1.3a (Unix) allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long argument. An example threat model is automated execution of DMitry with hostname strings found in local log files.
