- Summary
- CVE-2026-71218 affecting package iperf3 3.17.1-4
- Details
-
A flaw was found in iperf3. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit a vulnerability in the
JSON_read()function, which accepts a peer-controlled message length and allocates memory without an upper bound. This allows the attacker to trigger excessive memory consumption, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) through memory exhaustion, severe slowdown, or termination of the iperf3 service. - References
