CVE-2026-119600
tcpflow through 1.6.1 Out-of-Bounds Read via TCP Demultiplexer Payload Length
No exploitation reported by the sources we read.
- Published2026-10-30
- WeaknessCWE-130
Am I affected?
Debian, Ubuntu or Red Hat sometimes backport a fix without changing the upstream version number: such a version reads « to verify », never « 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
tcpflow before 1.7.0 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read process memory by sending packets with forged IP payload lengths. Attackers can inject crafted IPv4 or IPv6 TCP packets into captured traffic or pcap files to leak adjacent memory into reconstructed flow files or crash tcpflow.
