Id Description
57897 FreeRADIUS radiusd rad_decode Function Zero-length Tunnel-Password Attribute ...

2850 FreeRADIUS Tagged Attribute Handling DoS

FreeRADIUS 0.9.2, and earlier, contains a flaw that may allow a remote denial of service. The issue is triggered when reception of a malformed packet sent to the service occurs, and will result in loss of availability for the service. It is possible to crash the service due to a NULL pointer dereference bug, which can be exploited by sending an "Access-Request" packet containing a "Tunnel-Password" attribute.
