CVE-2013-10005Network attack vector

Program crash via recursive address methods

Published Dec 27, 2022 · Updated Apr 11, 2025

Denial of service in btcsuite go-socks before 0.0.0-20130808000456-233bccbb1abe allows remote attackers to crash a program. proxiedConn.LocalAddr and RemoteAddr recursively call themselves when their stored addresses are nil instead of delegating to the underlying connection. A reachable application path must invoke either method in that state, causing unbounded recursion and a stack-overflow crash without reported data disclosure or modification.
