Summary
generated automatically from NVD dataBrocade Fabric contains a stack-based buffer overflow in its SNMP daemon, affecting versions before 10.0.1. While handling an SNMPv3 packet, a statistics gathering handler copies the user-supplied context name into a fixed-size buffer without checking its length. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could send a crafted packet under default configuration to corrupt memory, crash the daemon, or potentially execute arbitrary code, and the flaw is rated CVSS 9.8 (CRITICAL).
NVD description
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the SNMP daemon request handling of Brocade Fabric versions before 10.0.1. When processing an incoming SNMPv3 packet, an internal statistics gathering handler copies user-supplied context name data into a fixed-size buffer without properly validating the length of the string. A remote, unauthenticated attacker (under default configuration) can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted SNMPv3 packet, leading to memory corruption, daemon crash (Denial of Service), or potential arbitrary code execution.
