CVE-2020-25340

Because some allocated modules are not correctly freed, if the nfstream object is directly destroyed without being used after it is created, it will cause a memory leak that may result in a local denial of service (DoS).

MEDIUM 5.5EPSS 0.33%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.33%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An issue was discovered in NFStream 5.2.0. Because some allocated modules are not correctly freed, if the nfstream object is directly destroyed without being used after it is created, it will cause a memory leak that may result in a local denial of service (DoS).
