CVE-2026-92695

FastNetMon: Legacy pcap parse_packet() has no bounds checking, causing out-of-bounds read on truncated frames

Published Nov 5, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8.2 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
FastNetMon is a high-performance DDoS detector and sensor. In version 1.2.9 and earlier, the live parse_packet() callback in src/pcap_plugin/pcap_collector.cpp is registered through pcap_loop and processes captured frames when pcap = on without checking packethdr->caplen. A short frame or an attacker-controlled IPv4 header length can make the parser dereference IP or transport headers beyond the captured bytes, causing an out-of-bounds read and process termination. No fixed release is available as of this review.
