Description

Heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in extract_status_code() function in lib/html.c that parses HTTP status code returned from web server allows malicious web server or man-in-the-middle attacker pretending to be a web server to cause either a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code on keepalived load balancer.
