2024-07-01 | CVE-2024-36990 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Splunk and Splunk Cloud Platform In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.2, 9.1.5, and 9.0.10 and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 9.2.2403.100, an authenticated, low-privileged user that does not hold the admin or power Splunk roles could send a specially crafted HTTP POST request to the datamodel/web REST endpoint in Splunk Enterprise, potentially causing a denial of service. | 6.5 |
2024-06-21 | CVE-2024-36288 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: SUNRPC: Fix loop termination condition in gss_free_in_token_pages() The in_token->pages[] array is not NULL terminated. | 5.5 |
2024-06-20 | CVE-2021-47617 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PCI: pciehp: Fix infinite loop in IRQ handler upon power fault The Power Fault Detected bit in the Slot Status register differs from all other hotplug events in that it is sticky: It can only be cleared after turning off slot power. | 5.5 |
2024-06-13 | CVE-2024-5949 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Deepseaelectronics Dse855 Firmware 1.1.0 Deep Sea Electronics DSE855 Multipart Boundary Infinite Loop Denial-of-Service Vulnerability. | 6.5 |
2024-06-04 | CVE-2024-32976 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Envoyproxy Envoy Envoy is a cloud-native, open source edge and service proxy. | 7.5 |
2024-05-20 | CVE-2024-35981 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virtio_net: Do not send RSS key if it is not supported There is a bug when setting the RSS options in virtio_net that can break the whole machine, getting the kernel into an infinite loop. Running the following command in any QEMU virtual machine with virtionet will reproduce this problem: # ethtool -X eth0 hfunc toeplitz This is how the problem happens: 1) ethtool_set_rxfh() calls virtnet_set_rxfh() 2) virtnet_set_rxfh() calls virtnet_commit_rss_command() 3) virtnet_commit_rss_command() populates 4 entries for the rss scatter-gather 4) Since the command above does not have a key, then the last scatter-gatter entry will be zeroed, since rss_key_size == 0. sg_buf_size = vi->rss_key_size; 5) This buffer is passed to qemu, but qemu is not happy with a buffer with zero length, and do the following in virtqueue_map_desc() (QEMU function): if (!sz) { virtio_error(vdev, "virtio: zero sized buffers are not allowed"); 6) virtio_error() (also QEMU function) set the device as broken vdev->broken = true; 7) Qemu bails out, and do not repond this crazy kernel. 8) The kernel is waiting for the response to come back (function virtnet_send_command()) 9) The kernel is waiting doing the following : while (!virtqueue_get_buf(vi->cvq, &tmp) && !virtqueue_is_broken(vi->cvq)) cpu_relax(); 10) None of the following functions above is true, thus, the kernel loops here forever. | 5.5 |
2024-05-20 | CVE-2024-35982 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: batman-adv: Avoid infinite loop trying to resize local TT If the MTU of one of an attached interface becomes too small to transmit the local translation table then it must be resized to fit inside all fragments (when enabled) or a single packet. But if the MTU becomes too low to transmit even the header + the VLAN specific part then the resizing of the local TT will never succeed. | 5.5 |
2024-04-24 | CVE-2024-20353 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software A vulnerability in the management and VPN web servers for Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause the device to reload unexpectedly, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. This vulnerability is due to incomplete error checking when parsing an HTTP header. | 8.6 |
2024-04-04 | CVE-2024-26780 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: af_unix: Fix task hung while purging oob_skb in GC. syzbot reported a task hung; at the same time, GC was looping infinitely in list_for_each_entry_safe() for OOB skb. | 5.5 |
2024-04-03 | CVE-2024-26767 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fixed integer types and null check locations [why]: issues fixed: - comparison with wider integer type in loop condition which can cause infinite loops - pointer dereference before null check | 5.5 |
