Descriptions

bgpd in Quagga before 0.99.17 does not properly parse AS paths, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via an unknown AS type in an AS path attribute in a BGP UPDATE message.

bgpd en Quagga anteriores a v0.99.17 no realiza el análisis sintáctico las rutas AS, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (desreferencia de puntero NULL y caída del demonio) a través de un tipo AS desconocido en un atributo AS en un mensaje BGP UPDATE.
