Details

Stack-based Buffer Overflow in lwsadnsparselabel in warmcat libwebsockets allows, when the LWSWITHSYSASYNCDNS flag is enabled during compilation, to overflow the labelstack, when the attacker is able to sniff a DNS request in order to craft a response with a matching id containing a label longer than the maximum.
