Race Condition
AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

In FRRouting FRR before 8.5, the service user (usually frr) can escalate its privileges to root by monitoring the configuration directory (/etc/frr) and replacing config files upon creation with, for example, symlinks to change the ownership of arbitrary files. This is a TOCTOU Race Condition caused by a combination of touch and chown.

AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

An out-of-bounds read exists in the BGP daemon of FRRouting FRR through 8.4. When sending a malformed BGP OPEN message that ends with the option length octet (or the option length word, in case of an extended OPEN message), the FRR code reads of out of the bounds of the packet, throwing a SIGABRT signal and exiting. This results in a bgpd daemon restart, causing a Denial-of-Service condition.

AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

An issue was discovered in bgpd in FRRouting (FRR) through 8.4. By crafting a BGP OPEN message with an option of type 0xff (Extended Length from RFC 9072), attackers may cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon restart, or out-of-bounds read). This is possible because of inconsistent boundary checks that do not account for reading 3 bytes (instead of 2) in this 0xff case.

By crafting a BGP OPEN message with an option of type 0xff (Extended Length from RFC 9072), attackers may cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon restart, or out-of-bounds read). This is possible because of inconsistent boundary checks that do not account for reading 3 bytes (instead of 2) in this 0xff case.
