Descriptions

In FreeBSD before 11.2-STABLE(r348229), 11.2-RELEASE-p7, 12.0-STABLE(r342228), and 12.0-RELEASE-p1, insufficient validation of network-provided data in bootpd may make it possible for a malicious attacker to craft a bootp packet which could cause a stack buffer overflow. It is possible that the buffer overflow could lead to a Denial of Service or remote code execution.

En FreeBSD en versiones anteriores a la 1.2-STABLE(r348229), 11.2-RELEASE-p7 y 12.0-STABLE(r342228) y en la 12.0-RELEASE-p1, una validación insuficiente de los datos proporcionados por la red en bootpd podría permitir que un atacante malicioso manipule un paquete bootp, lo que podría conducir a un desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila. Es posible que el desbordamiento de búfer provoque una denegación de servicio (DoS) o ejecución remota de código.
