busybox: CVE-2019-5747

Severity: Low · CVSS 3.5CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
Published: Jan 9, 2019, 12:00:00 AM UTC

EPSS: 4.65% · Oct 25, 2026

An issue was discovered in BusyBox through 1.30.0. An out of bounds read in udhcp components (consumed by the DHCP client, server, and/or relay) might allow a remote attacker to leak sensitive information from the stack by sending a crafted DHCP message. This is related to assurance of a 4-byte length when decoding DHCP_SUBNET. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2018-20679.
