[Bug] NULL Pointer Dereference in read_hexstring() at utils.c:309 #787
Description
Describe the bug
There is a NULL Pointer Dereference in read_hexstring() when the user passes empty user dlink string to tcprewrite with option --user-dlink when the program process the pcap file whose data link type is DLT_USER0.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Get the Tcpreplay source code and compile it.
$ ./configure
$ make
- Run Command
$ ./tcprewrite --user-dlink="" -i $POC -o /dev/null
The POC file could be downloaded in POC file
Expected behavior
Program crashes with Segmentation fault.
The GDB report is:
$ gdb --args ./bin_normal/bin/tcprewrite --user-dlink="" -i ./poc-tcprewrite-bcb107a-read_hexstring-SEGV -o /dev/null
