Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Data Handling (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-3294)

CWE-ID: CWE-19 - Data Handling

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to #BASIC_IMPACT#.

The tcp_request function in Dnsmasq before 2.73rc4 does not properly handle the return value of the setup_reply function, which allows remote attackers to read process memory and cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and crash) via a malformed DNS request.
