This is a security patch release to address potential Denial of Service
vulnerabilities:
-
Null pointer dereference in the RPC analysis code. RPC analyzers
(e.g. MOUNT or NFS) are not enabled in the default configuration. -
Signed integer overflow in BinPAC-generated parser code. The result
of this is Undefined Behavior with respect to the array bounds
checking conditions that BinPAC generates, so it's unpredictable
what an optimizing compiler may actually do under the assumption
that signed integer overlows should never happen. The specific
symptom which lead to finding this issue was with the PE analyzer
causing out-of-memory crashes due to large allocations that were
otherwise prevented when the array bounds checking logic was changed
to prevent any possible signed integer overlow.
