Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions CHICKEN versions prior to 4.12

Description The issue arises from the process-execute and process-spawn procedures not freeing memory correctly when the execve() call fails, leading to a memory leak. This could be exploited by an attacker to cause resource exhaustion or a denial of service.

Recommendations For versions prior to 4.12, update to version 4.12 or 5.0 when available to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider implementing measures to monitor and limit resource usage to minimize the risk of exploitation.
