CVE-2017-10978 FreeRADIUS vulnerabilities
Title: FreeRADIUS vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in FreeRADIUS.
Guido Vranken discovered that FreeRADIUS incorrectly handled memory when
decoding packets. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause
FreeRADIUS to crash or hang, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly
execute arbitrary code.
Instructions: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

CVE-2017-10985 [HIGH] CWE-835 freeradius: Infinite loop and memory exhaustion with 'concat' attributes
freeradius: Infinite loop and memory exhaustion with 'concat' attributes
An FR-GV-302 issue in FreeRADIUS 3.x before 3.0.15 allows "Infinite loop and memory exhaustion with 'concat' attributes" and a denial of service.
A denial of service flaw was found in the way FreeRADIUS server handled certain attributes in request packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause the FreeRADIUS server to enter an infinite loop, consume increasing amounts of memory resources, and ultimately crash by sending a specially crafted request packet.

CVE-2017-10985 [HIGH] CVE-2017-10985 freeradius: Infinite loop and memory exhaustion with 'concat' attributes
CVE-2017-10985 freeradius: Infinite loop and memory exhaustion with 'concat' attributes
When the server receives zero-length attributes marked 'concat' in the dictionaries, it could go into an infinite loop and exhaust memory. The issue happens when the server receives a packet containing the following attribute data: 4f 02, 89 02, 90 02, or b4 02.
The security impact is denial of service by anyone who can send packets which are accepted by the server.
Affected versions: 3.0.0 through 3.0.14, inclusive.
