Descriptions

The originates_from_local_legacy_unicast_socket function (avahi-core/server.c) in avahi-daemon in Avahi before 0.6.24 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted mDNS packet with a source port of 0, which triggers an assertion failure.

La función originates_from_local_legacy_unicast_socket (avahi-core/server.c)en avahi-daemon en Avahi anterior a v0.6.24 permite a atacantes remotos producir una denegación de servicio (caída) a través de un paquete mDNS manipulado con un puerto de origen de 0, que dispara un fallo de evaluación.

Avahi-daemon versions prior to 0.6.24 can be DoSd with an mDNS packet with a source port of 0.
