Description

In radare2 through 3.5.1, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in the r_egg_lang_parsechar function of egg_lang.c. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact because of missing length validation in libr/egg/egg.c.

Solution(s)

  • alpine-linux-upgrade-radare2

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
