Description

radare2 6.1.5 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the gdbr_threads_list() function that allows remote attackers to trigger memory corruption by sending a valid qfThreadInfo response followed by a malformed qsThreadInfo response. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability through GDB remote debugging to cause a denial of service or potentially achieve code execution by manipulating thread list processing.

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 ».
