Description

Tim Wojtulewicz of Corelight reports: A specially-crafted series of FTP packets with a CMD command with a large path followed by a very large number of replies could cause Zeek to spend a long time processing the data. A specially-crafted with a truncated header can cause Zeek to overflow memory and potentially crash. A specially-crafted series of SMTP packets can cause Zeek to generate a very large number of events and take a long time to process them. A specially-crafted series of POP3 packets containing MIME data can cause Zeek to spend a long time dealing with each individual file ID.
