Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical was found in FreeBSD up to 10.1 (Operating System). This vulnerability affects the function igmp_input of the component IGMP Handler. The manipulation as part of a IGMPv3 Data leads to a integer overflow vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-190. The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound, when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This can introduce other weaknesses when the calculation is used for resource management or execution control. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

The weakness was published 02/25/2015 by Mateusz Kocielski, Logicaltrust, Marek Kroemeke and 22733db72ab3ed94b5f8a1ffcde850251fe6f466 as FreeBSD-SA-15:04.igmp as confirmed advisory (Website). The advisory is shared for download at security.FreeBSD.org. This vulnerability was named CVE-2015-1414 since 01/27/2015. The attack can be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is required for a successful exploitation. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available. The current price for an exploit might be approx. USD $0-$5k (estimation calculated on 03/10/2022). This vulnerability has a historic impact due to its background and reception. The advisory points out:

An attacker who can send specifically crafted IGMP packets could cause a denial of service situation by causing the kernel to crash.

The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 83735 (McAfee Firewall Enterprise IGMP Packet Integer Overflow DoS (SB10107)), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Firewalls. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 175448 (Debian Security Update for kfreebsd-9 (DSA 3175-2)).
