Suricata · Suricata · CVE-2024-55605
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Suricata versions prior to 7.0.8
**Description**
The issue is related to a stack overflow caused by a large input buffer to certain transform functions, including `to lowercase`, `to uppercase`, `strip whitespace`, `compress whitespace`, `dotprefix`, `header lowercase`, `strip pseudo headers`, `url decode`, or `xor`. This can lead to Suricata crashing. The problem has been addressed in Suricata 7.0.8.
**Recommendations**
For Suricata versions prior to 7.0.8, update to Suricata 7.0.8 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the input buffer size to the transform functions to minimize the risk of exploitation.
