Descriptions
The recv_and_process_client_pkt function in networking/ntpd.c in busybox allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU and bandwidth consumption) via a forged NTP packet, which triggers a communication loop.
La función recv_and_process_client_pkt en networking/ntpd.c en busybox permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (consumo de CPU y ancho de banda) a través de un paquete NTP falsificado, lo que desencadena un bucle de comunicación.
Many Cisco devices such as Cisco RV340, Cisco RV340W, Cisco RV345, Cisco RV345P, Cisco RV260, Cisco RV260P, Cisco RV260W, Cisco 160, and Cisco 160W suffer from having hard-coded credentials, known GNU glibc, known BusyBox, and IoT Inspector identified vulnerabilities.
