Descriptions

Buffer overflow in the ospf_ls_upd_list_lsa function in ospf_packet.c in the OSPFv2 implementation in ospfd in Quagga before 0.99.20.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) via a Link State Update (aka LS Update) packet that is smaller than the length specified in its header.

Desbordamiento de búfer en la función ospf_ls_upd_list_lsa en ospf_packet.c en la implementación de OSPFv2 en ospfd en Quagga antes v0.99.20.1 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (error de aserción y salida del demonio) a través de un paquete de actualización de estado de enlace (también conocido como LS Update) que es más pequeño de lo que indica la longitud especificada en su cabecera.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Quagga, the worst of which could lead to arbitrary code execution. Versions less than 0.99.22.4 are affected.
