The Keccak XKCP SHA-3 reference implementation before fdc6fef has an integer overflow and resultant buffer overflow that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or eliminate expected cryptographic properties. This occurs in the sponge function interface. A flaw was found in the Keccak XKCP SHA-3 reference implementation. The sponge function interface allows partial input data to be processed, and partial output to be produced. When at least one of these has a length of 4294967096 bytes or more, it can result in elimination of cryptographic properties, execution of arbitrary code, or a denial of service.
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.
