Description

Integer signedness error in certain older versions of the NeL library, as used in Mtp-Target 1.2.2 and earlier, and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or server crash) via a negative value in a STLport call, which is not caught by a signed comparison.

Public exploits

Exploit or proof-of-concept code for this vulnerability is publicly available, which lowers the bar for attackers. Treat it as a reason to patch sooner.

Third-party code, not reviewed by us. Public PoCs are sometimes fake or contain malware. Read the code first and run it only in an isolated lab, against systems you are authorised to test.
