CVE-2015-8041

wpa: CVE-2015-8041

Severity: Medium
Published: Jul 8, 2015, 12:00:00 AM UTC
Source: [NVD] · [CVE record]
EPSS: 3.41% · Oct 25, 2026

Multiple integer overflows in the NDEF record parser in hostapd before 2.5 and wpa_supplicant before 2.5 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash or infinite loop) via a large payload length field value in an (1) WPS or (2) P2P NFC NDEF record, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
