lwIP through 2.2.1 contains a stack out-of-bounds write vulnerability in mdnshandleresponse that allows adjacent attackers to corrupt stack memory by sending mDNS responses with invalid domain names. Attackers on the local link can send multicast PTR answers with oversized RDLENGTH or SRV answers with RDLENGTH below 6 during a service search, overflowing a 256-byte stack buffer and crashing the device.
lwIP SMTP client does not check the size of inputs, potentially allowing a buffer overflow.
lwIP (Lightweight IP) has a double free vulnerability, which could crash the system, cause a DoS, memory corruption, or allow code execution on the victim system.
lwIP TCP/IP Stack MQTT is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds write, which may allow an attacker to gain full code execution on the device.
A vulnerability was found in lwIP up to 2.2.1. Affected is the function snmpparseinboundframe of the file src/apps/snmp/snmpmsg.c of the component snmpv3 USM Handler. Performing a manipulation of the argument msgAuthenticationParameters results in stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be initiated remotely. The patch is named 0c957ec03054eb6c8205e9c9d1d05d90ada3898c. It is suggested to install a patch to address this issue.
