DescriptionNVD

A vulnerability was found in lwIP up to 2.2.1. Affected is the function snmp_parse_inbound_frame of the file src/apps/snmp/snmp_msg.c of the component snmpv3 USM Handler. Performing a manipulation of the argument msgAuthenticationParameters results in stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be initiated remotely. The patch is named 0c957ec03054eb6c8205e9c9d1d05d90ada3898c. It is suggested to install a patch to address this issue.

AnalysisAI

Stack-based buffer overflow in lwIP through 2.2.1 enables remote unauthenticated attackers to corrupt stack memory in the SNMPv3 USM handler by sending a crafted msgAuthenticationParameters field to snmp_parse_inbound_frame in src/apps/snmp/snmp_msg.c. The flaw stems from a commented-out length assertion that allowed user-controlled TLV value lengths to exceed SNMP_V3_MAX_AUTH_PARAM_LENGTH during decoding. …
