CVE-2010-4051 -- glibcID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:2003125 | Date: (C)2020-09-23 (M)2023-11-13 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: unix |
The regcomp implementation in the GNU C Library through 2.11.3, and 2.12.x through 2.12.2, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service via a regular expression containing adjacent bounded repetitions that bypass the intended RE_DUP_MAX limitation, as demonstrated by a {10,}{10,}{10,}{10,}{10,} sequence in the proftpd.gnu.c exploit for ProFTPD, related to a "RE_DUP_MAX overflow."
