Descriptions

The bgp_capability_orf function in bgpd in Quagga 0.99.20.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) by leveraging a BGP peering relationship and sending a malformed Outbound Route Filtering (ORF) capability TLV in an OPEN message.

La función bgp_capability_orf de bgpd de Quagga 0.99.20.1 y anteriores permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (fallo de aserción y finalización del demonio) basándose en una relación "BGP peering" y enviando información mal formada de "Outbound Route Filtering (ORF) capability TLV" en un mensaje OPEN.

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.
