Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.
1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-12829)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
radare2 through 3.5.1 mishandles the RParse API, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact, as demonstrated by newstr buffer overflows during replace operations. This affects libr/asm/asm.c and libr/parse/parse.c.Remediation
