Out-of-bounds write in CheckPeers block parser due to unvalidated peer station name length
Get instant alerts when new vulnerabilities affect P-Net - before attackers find them.
P-Net before 1.0.3 does not validate the LengthPeerStationName field of a CheckPeers block in get_check_peer(). The received length (up to 255) was used to copy data into the 241-byte peer station name buffer and to place the terminating NUL byte, so a crafted block writes up to 15 bytes past the end of the buffer. This can lead to a crash (denial of service) or potentially arbitrary code execution. Requires establishment of session that needs ADJACENT network access.
No remediation guidance has been written for this CVE yet, and no fixed version or vendor advisory is recorded against it.
