CVSS v2.0

10

High

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions hpsockd versions prior to 0.6
Description The issue concerns multiple vulnerabilities in the hpsockd package of the Debian GNU/Linux operating system, which can be exploited remotely to compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. A buffer overflow in hpsockd allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, potentially leading to the execution of arbitrary code.
Recommendations For versions prior to 0.6, update to version 0.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the hpsockd service to minimize the risk of exploitation.
