Unauthenticated service crash via password.h buffer overflow
Published Jul 29, 2024 · Updated Mar 14, 2025
Buffer overflow in host-host NEUQ_board 1.0 allows remote attackers to crash the service through the password.h component. The published record identifies password.h as the vulnerable locus but does not disclose the unchecked copy operation, destination buffer, or attacker-controlled field. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the documented consequence is an availability-only service interruption.
