CVE-2026-92698 Details
Description
FastNetMon is a high-performance DDoS detector and sensor. In version 1.2.9 and earlier, process_sflow_flow_sample() in src/sflow_plugin/sflow_collector.cpp passes the attacker-controlled sflow_raw_protocol_header_t.header_size to parse_raw_packet_to_simple_packet_full() as its trusted captured length without comparing it with the bytes remaining in the record. An inflated header_size creates a false end pointer beyond the received sFlow v5 UDP buffer, defeating the nested parser's bounds checks and causing an unauthenticated remote out-of-bounds read and process crash, with possible limited exposure of adjacent bytes through parsed flow fields. No fixed release is available as of this review.
A vulnerability in FastNetMon's sFlow plugin, present in versions through 1.2.9, allows for an unauthenticated remote out-of-bounds read. The issue arises in the 'process_sflow_flow_sample()' function, where the 'header_size' field is copied directly from the sFlow packet without validation. This unchecked, attacker-controlled value is then used to inflate the end pointer for packet parsing, bypassing bounds checks and leading to a crash. Additionally, there is a potential for limited exposure of adjacent memory bytes through the parsed flow fields.
No fixed release is available as of this review.
