Descriptions
The originates_from_local_legacy_unicast_socket function in avahi-core/server.c in avahi-daemon 0.6.23 does not account for the network byte order of a port number when processing incoming multicast packets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (network bandwidth and CPU consumption) via a crafted legacy unicast mDNS query packet that triggers a multicast packet storm.
La función originates_from_local_legacy_unicast_socket en avahi-core/server.c en avahi-daemon v0.6.23 no tiene en cuenta la orden del byte de red de un numero de puerto cuando se esta procesando la llegada de paquetes multidifusión, lo que permite a atacantes remotos producir una denegación de servicio (agotamiento de ancho de banda y CPU) a través de un paquete de petición legada monodifusión mDNS que dispara una tormenta de paquetes multidifusión.
