Description:
Debian has reported a vulnerability in radiusd-cistron, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) on a vulnerable system or potentially compromise it.
The vulnerbaility is caused due to a boundary error, which can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by sending a long, specially crafted NAS-Port attribute.
Successful exploitation will crash the service or may allow execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the RADIUS daemon (typically "root"), if the malicious person either knows a valid RADIUS key or is able to guess one.
