CVE-2015-2305 Detail
Modified
This vulnerability has been modified since it was last analyzed by the NVD. It is awaiting reanalysis which may result in further changes to the information provided.
Current Description
Integer overflow in the regcomp implementation in the Henry Spencer BSD regex library (aka rxspencer) alpha3.8.g5 on 32-bit platforms, as used in NetBSD through 6.1.5 and other products, might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large regular expression that leads to a heap-based buffer overflow.

Desbordamiento de enteros en la implementación regcomp en la librería Henry Spencer BSD regex (también conocido como rxspencer) alpha3.8.g5 en las plataformas de 32 bits, utilizado en NetBSD hasta 6.1.5 y otros productos, podría permitir a atacantes dependientes de contexto ejecutar código arbitrario a través de una expresión regular grande que conlleva a un desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica |
