Log-analysis crash via misplaced Opera version substring
Published Jul 30, 2026 · Updated Jul 30, 2026
Heap-based buffer overflow in GoAccess 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to crash log analysis via a crafted User-Agent. In parse_browser, the Opera branch moves a trailing version substring to match plus five without ensuring the matched browser token begins with the five-byte Opera literal, writing one to four attacker-influenced bytes past the heap allocation. Exploitation requires a web request to enter an access log later processed with a User-Agent-bearing format; default COMBINED formats expose the path, and heap corruption can abort the GoAccess process.
