A stack-buffer overflow in GDB’s Ada name-decoding routine — tracked as CVE-2023-39128 — quietly exposed a fragile surface in one of the most widely used debugging tools: a bug in the function ada_decode (file gdb/ada-lang.c) that could crash the debugger and force denial-of-service on...

A subtle arithmetic mistake in the Linux kernel’s NTFS3 driver has been fixed, closing CVE-2024-27407 — a locally exploitable buffer‑overflow vulnerability in the mi_enum_attr() routine that, if triggered on systems that mount NTFS volumes, can corrupt kernel memory, crash the host, and in the...

A buffer‑overflow flaw in Intel’s SSD Tools integration with the mdadm utility — tracked as CVE‑2023‑28736 — quietly landed on security lists in August 2023 and remains a textbook case in how a locally‑triggered memory corruption in low‑level storage tooling can produce outsized operational risk...

A heap buffer overflow in the c-ares DNS parsing code — tracked as CVE-2020-22217 — lets a malicious name server craft an SOA reply that can crash or destabilize applications that use the vulnerable library, and in some configurations could lead to remote code execution. The bug was found in the...

A stack-based buffer overflow affecting libcoap’s address-resolution path has been publicly disclosed as CVE-2025-34468; the defect allows attacker-controlled hostnames to overflow a fixed 256-byte stack buffer in certain code paths, producing reliable Denial‑of‑Service and an...

A newly disclosed, high‑severity vulnerability in the widely used Net‑SNMP suite can cause the snmptrapd daemon to overflow a stack buffer and crash — and operators must treat CVE‑2025‑68615 as an immediate remediation priority for any host running vulnerable Net‑SNMP versions. Background /...

A heap‑based buffer overflow has been disclosed in the HDF5 library: CVE‑2025‑2923 documents a flaw in the function H5F_addr_encode_len (file src/H5Fint.c) that can write past an allocated buffer when processing crafted data, producing a reliable crash and a low‑to‑medium severity local attack...

Delta Electronics’ ASDA‑Soft engineering suite contains two newly disclosed stack‑based buffer overflow flaws that can corrupt memory when a user opens a specially crafted project file — and Delta has issued a patched release (ASDA‑Soft v7.1.1.0) to address the risk.
