CVE-2020-15350 (GCVE-0-2020-15350)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2020-07-07 16:37 – Updated: 2024-08-04 13:15
VLAI
Summary
RIOT 2020.04 has a buffer overflow in the base64 decoder. The decoding function base64_decode() uses an output buffer estimation function to compute the required buffer capacity and validate against the provided buffer size. The base64_estimate_decode_size() function calculates the expected decoded size with an arithmetic round-off error and does not take into account possible padding bytes. Due to this underestimation, it may be possible to craft base64 input that causes a buffer overflow.
