uri FreeBSD Security Advisory - FreeBSD-SA-19:08.rack By packetstormsecurity.com Published On :: Fri, 21 Jun 2019 18:32:22 GMT FreeBSD Security Advisory - While processing acknowledgements, the RACK code uses several linked lists to maintain state entries. A malicious attacker can cause the lists to grow unbounded. This can cause an expensive list traversal on every packet being processed, leading to resource exhaustion and a denial of service. An attacker with the ability to send specially crafted TCP traffic to a victim system can degrade network performance and/or consume excessive CPU by exploiting the inefficiency of traversing the potentially very large RACK linked lists with relatively small bandwidth cost.

A user in the operator group can make use of this interface to gain root privileges on a system with a cd(4) device when some media is present in the device. Full Article
