CVE-2017-9048 | BDVDB-2026-85568 Detail
SiemensSIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518-4 PN/DP MFP
Description#
libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow. The function xmlSnprintfElementContent in valid.c is supposed to recursively dump the element content definition into a char buffer 'buf' of size 'size'. At the end of the routine, the function may strcat two more characters without checking whether the current strlen(buf) + 2 < size. This vulnerability causes programs that use libxml2, such as PHP, to crash.
Impact#
Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact none, integrity impact none, availability impact high. Attack vector: network.
Weaknesses#
- CWE-119 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer
