A public proof of concept exists; no exploitation attested.

  • Published2024-03-19

Am I affected?

With a domain, we read the version its public headers and pages expose. A distribution build can carry the fix under an older number.

Description

Implementations of UDP application protocol are vulnerable to network loops. An unauthenticated attacker can use maliciously-crafted packets against a vulnerable implementation that can lead to Denial of Service (DOS) and/or abuse of resources.

Hear about the next vulnerability in your software

Surveillance reads the versions in your stack — a domain, a lockfile or a list — checks each CVE against the ranges its sources publish, and alerts you when one you run is exploited or enters CISA KEV. A version it cannot read stays « version not verified ».
