A flaw was found in libsolv. This heap buffer overflow vulnerability occurs when a victim processes a specially crafted .solv file containing negative size values in the repo_add_solv function. This leads to an undersized memory allocation and a subsequent out-of-bounds write. An attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service (DoS).
AnalysisAI
Heap-based buffer overflow in libsolv's repo_add_solv() function enables a remote unauthenticated attacker to crash the parsing process by delivering a specially crafted .solv repository metadata file containing negative values in the maxsize or allsize header fields. The malformed values bypass allocation sizing logic, producing an undersized heap buffer that is subsequently written past its bounds, yielding a denial of service. …
