Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1674)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows remote attackers to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a malformed Extended Communities attribute.


2) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1675)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

bgpd in Quagga before 0.99.18 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (session reset) via a malformed AS_PATHLIMIT path attribute.
