{"id":"CVE-2026-48690","details":"FastNetMon Community Edition through 1.2.9 contains an integer overflow vulnerability in the packet capture buffer allocation. In src/packet_storage.hpp, the allocate_buffer() function computes memory_size_in_bytes as 'buffer_size_in_packets * (max_captured_packet_size + sizeof(fastnetmon_pcap_pkthdr_t)) + sizeof(fastnetmon_pcap_file_header_t)' using unsigned int (32-bit) arithmetic. With max_captured_packet_size=1500 and sizeof(fastnetmon_pcap_pkthdr_t)=16, each packet requires approximately 1516 bytes. If buffer_size_in_packets exceeds approximately 2,832,542, the multiplication overflows, resulting in a much smaller allocation than expected. Subsequent write_packet() calls then write past the allocated buffer, causing heap corruption. The buffer_size_in_packets value is derived from the ban_details_records_count configuration parameter, which is parsed using atoi() with no overflow checking.","modified":"2026-07-15T01:49:13.978775193Z","published":"2026-05-26T00:00:00Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"mitre","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/48xxx/CVE-2026-48690.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/pavel-odintsov/fastnetmon/blob/master/src/packet_storage.hpp"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/48xxx/CVE-2026-48690.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-48690"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/pavel-odintsov/fastnetmon"},{"type":"ARTICLE","url":"https://lorikeetsecurity.com/blog/fastnetmon-cve-2026-48690-packet-storage-integer-overflow"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/pavel-odintsov/fastnetmon","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"394fbe06d112f9609d3d1cb10d60cbf98347c96a"}],"database_specific":{"source":["DESCRIPTION","CPE_RANGE"],"cpe":"cpe:2.3:a:pavel-odintsov:fastnetmon:*:*:*:*:community:*:*:*","extracted_events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.2.9"},{"last_affected":"1.2.9"}]}}],"versions":["v1.2.8","v1.2.7","v1.2.6","v1.2.5","v1.2.4","v1.2.3","v1.2.2","v1.2.1","v1.2.0","v1.1.9","v1.1.8","v1.1.7","v1.1.6","v1.1.5","v1.1.4","v1.1.3","v1.1.2","v1.1.0","v1.0.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-48690.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N"}]}
