Attack vector
NETWORK Attack complexity
MEDIUM Privileges required
SINGLE Confidentiality impact
NONE Integrity impact
NONE Availability impact
PARTIAL Summary
znc.cpp in ZNC before 0.092 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (crash) by requesting traffic statistics when there is an active unauthenticated connection, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference, as demonstrated using (1) a traffic link in the web administration pages or (2) the traffic command in the /znc shell. Per: http://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/476.html 'CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference'
