NULL pointer dereference get_ipv6_l4proto() #536
Description
Description - we observed a NULL pointer dereference occured in function get_ipv6_l4proto() located at get.c .The same be triggered by sending a crafted pcap file to the tcpreplay-edit binary. It allows an attacker to cause Denial of Service (Segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact.
Command - tcpreplay-edit -r 80:84 -s 20 -b -C -m 1500 -P --oneatatime -i $INTERFACE $POC
POC - REPRODUCER
Debug -
GDB -
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
