{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-48685","details":"FastNetMon Community Edition through 1.2.9 has out-of-bounds memory access because it incorrectly parses BGP path attributes with the extended length flag set. In src/bgp_protocol.hpp, the parse_raw_bgp_attribute() function correctly identifies when extended_length_bit is set and sets length_of_length_field to 2, but then reads only a single byte for the attribute value length (attribute_value_length = value[2] at line 173). Per RFC 4271 Section 4.3, when the Extended Length bit is set, the Attribute Length field is two octets and the value should be read as a 16-bit big-endian integer from value[2] and value[3]. As a result, any attribute longer than 255 bytes has its length silently truncated to the low byte (e.g., 300 bytes = 0x012C is read as 0x2C = 44 bytes). The remaining 256 bytes are then misinterpreted as subsequent attributes, causing cascading parse failures and potential out-of-bounds memory access.","modified":"2026-09-14T17:03:42.553315579Z","published":"2026-05-26T16:16:26.570Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-48685"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-48685"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"fastnetmon","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/fastnetmon?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.2.4-2","1.2.4-2+deb12u1","1.2.5-1","1.2.5-2","1.2.5-2~bpo12+1","1.2.6-1","1.2.6-1~bpo12+1","1.2.7-1","1.2.7-1~bpo12+1","1.2.8+git20250911-1","1.2.8+git20250911-2","1.2.8-1","1.2.8-1~bpo12+1","1.2.9-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"unimportant"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-48685.json"}},{"package":{"name":"fastnetmon","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/fastnetmon?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.2.9-0+deb13u1"}]}],"versions":["1.2.8+git20250911-1","1.2.8+git20250911-2","1.2.8-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-48685.json"}},{"package":{"name":"fastnetmon","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/fastnetmon?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.2.9-1"}]}],"versions":["1.2.8+git20250911-1","1.2.8+git20250911-2","1.2.8-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"unimportant"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-48685.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
