Other vulnerabilities in radare2
See all- CVE-2026-8696High
Version 6.1.5 of radare2 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the gdbr_pids_list() function, which can be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code by sending malformed thread information responses.
- CVE-2026-8695High
radare2 version 6.1.5 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the gdbr_threads_list() function. This allows remote attackers to trigger memory corruption by sending a valid qfThreadInfo response followed by a malformed qsThreadInfo response.
- CVE-2026-40499High
radare2 prior to version 6.1.4 contains a command injection vulnerability in the PDB parser's print_gvars() function that allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands by embedding a newline byte in the PE section header name field. Attackers can craft a malicious PDB file with specially crafted section names to inject r2 commands that are executed when the idp command processes the file.
- CVE-2017-15932High
In radare2 version 2.0.1, an integer exception (negative number leading to an invalid memory access) exists in store_versioninfo_gnu_verdef() in elf.c, which can be triggered by crafted ELF files when parsing the ELF version on 32-bit systems.
- CVE-2017-15931High
In radare2 version 2.0.1, an integer exception (negative number leading to an invalid memory access) exists in store_versioninfo_gnu_verneed() in elf.c, which can be exploited via crafted ELF files on 32-bit systems.
- CVE-2017-15385High
The store_versioninfo_gnu_verdef function in radare2 2.0.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted ELF file, leading to an invalid write in r_read_le16 and application crash.
- CVE-2017-15368High
The wasm_dis function in radare2 version 2.0.0 allows remote attackers to cause denial of service through stack-based buffer over-read, leading to application crash. The attack can be executed using a crafted WASM file that triggers an incorrect r_hex_bin2str call.
- CVE-2017-10929High
The grub_memmove function in radare2 1.5.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) via a crafted binary file.
- CVE-2017-9949High
The grub_memmove function in radare2 1.5.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted binary file, potentially leading to application crashes due to a buffer underflow.
- CVE-2017-6448High
The dalvik_disassemble function in radare2 version 1.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted DEX file.
Original NVD description (English source)
A security flaw has been discovered in radareorg radare2 up to 6.1.6. This impacts the function r_str_word_get0set of the file libr/util/str.c. The manipulation results in integer overflow. The attack must be initiated from a local position. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks. The patch is identified as 11ac224c0eb8d57830fccc99e1c1cd8e5d958813. It is best practice to apply a patch to resolve this issue.
