2004-08-09 CVE-2004-1702 Remote Denial Of Service vulnerability in GNU CFEngine AuthenticationDialogue
The AuthenticationDialogue function in cfservd for Cfengine 2.0.0 to 2.1.7p1 does not properly check the return value of the ReceiveTransaction function, which leads to a failed malloc call and triggers to a null dereference, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash).
