Description

In all versions of libyang before 1.0-r5, a stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in the way libyang parses YANG files with a leaf of type "bits". An application that uses libyang to parse untrusted YANG files may be vulnerable to this flaw, which would allow an attacker to cause a denial of service or possibly gain code execution.

Affected configurations

• cesnet libyang 0.11 • cesnet libyang 0.12 • cesnet libyang 0.13 • cesnet libyang 0.14 • cesnet libyang 0.15 • cesnet libyang 0.16 • cesnet libyang 1.0 • redhat enterprise linux 8.0
