In nbd-server in nbd before 3.24, there is a stack-based buffer overflow. An attacker can cause a buffer overflow in the parsing of the name field by sending a crafted NBD_OPT_INFO or NBD_OPT_GO message with an large value as the length of the name.

The remote Fedora 37 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2022-e1ce6f6d88 advisory.

    Automatic update for nbd-3.24-1.fc37.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202402-10 (NBD Tools: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

  - In nbd-server in nbd before 3.24, there is an integer overflow with a resultant heap-based buffer     overflow. A value of 0xffffffff in the name length field will cause a zero-sized buffer to be allocated     for the name, resulting in a write to a dangling pointer. This issue exists for the NBD_OPT_INFO,     NBD_OPT_GO, and NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME messages. (CVE-2022-26495)

  - In nbd-server in nbd before 3.24, there is a stack-based buffer overflow. An attacker can cause a buffer     overflow in the parsing of the name field by sending a crafted NBD_OPT_INFO or NBD_OPT_GO message with an     large value as the length of the name. (CVE-2022-26496)

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5323-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that NBD incorrectly handled name length fields. A remote attacker could use this issue     to cause NBD to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
