Description
freeglut 3.4.0 was discovered to contain a memory leak via the menuEntry variable in the glutAddSubMenu function.
A memory leak flaw was found in the glutAddSubMenu function of freeglut, an open-source alternative to the OpenGL Utility Toolkit. This flaw allows an attacker to launch a denial of service attack by crashing or hanging the program or taking advantage of other unexpected program behavior resulting from a low memory condition.
