Vulnerability CVE-2016-10253 - CERT Civis.Net

Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2016-10253 (CCN-126699)

Assigned:

2016-06-19

Published:

2016-06-19

Updated:

2018-07-11

Summary:

An issue was discovered in Erlang/OTP 18.x. Erlang's generation of compiled regular expressions is vulnerable to a heap overflow. Regular expressions using a malformed extpattern can indirectly specify an offset that is used as an array index. This ordinal permits arbitrary regions within the erts_alloc arena to be both read and written to.
