GHSA-p8q8-xqgv-rwvr PUBLISHED CVSS 9.800000190734863 CRITICAL

Record from GitHub Advisory Database · Published May 13, 2022

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in NBD server implementation in qemu before 2.11 allowing a client to request an export name of size up to 4096 bytes, which in fact should be limited to 256 bytes, causing an out-of-bounds stack write in the qemu process. If NBD server requires TLS, the attacker cannot trigger the buffer overflow without first successfully negotiating TLS.
