Details

In The Sleuth Kit (TSK) through 4.6.4, hfscattraverse in tsk/fs/hfs.c does not properly determine when a key length is too large, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (SEGV on unknown address with READ memory access in a tskgetu16 call in hfsdiropenmetacb in tsk/fs/hfsdent.c).
