CVE-2018-17974
This leads to Denial of Service.
MEDIUM 5.5EPSS 0.99%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.99%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
An issue was discovered in Tcpreplay 4.3.0 beta1. A heap-based buffer over-read was triggered in the function dlt_en10mb_encode() of the file plugins/dlt_en10mb/en10mb.c, due to inappropriate values in the function memmove(). The length (pktlen + ctx -> l2len) can be larger than source value (packet + ctx->l2len) because the function fails to ensure the length of a packet is valid. This leads to Denial of Service.
