TITLE

F5 NGINX Controller Security hole

DESCRIPTION

A security issue in nginx resolver was identified, which might allow an attacker who is able to forge UDP packets from the DNS server to cause 1-byte memory overwrite, resulting in worker process crash or potential other impact. Nginx is a lightweight web server/reverse proxy server and email (IMAP/POP3) proxy server of Nginx Company in the United States. Affected products and versions are as follows: nginx: 0.6.18, 0.6.19 0.6.20, 0.6.21, 0.6.22 0.6.23, 0.6.24, 0.6.25, 0.6.26, 0.6.27, 0.6. A flaw was found in nginx. An off-by-one error while processing DNS responses allows a network malicious user to write a dot character out of bounds in a heap allocated buffer which can allow overwriting the least significant byte of next heap chunk metadata likely leading to a remote code execution in certain circumstances. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
