CVE-2026-92697

FastNetMon: NetFlow v9 unbounded strlen() on interface-description field causes remote out-of-bounds read

Published Nov 5, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS 1.1% KEV · Not listed
Description
FastNetMon is a high-performance DDoS detector and sensor. In version 1.2.9 and earlier, the NetFlow v9 collector calls  strlen()  on an attacker-controlled interface-description field without bounding the scan to the field’s declared length. Although fields longer than 128 bytes are excluded from this operation, an accepted field without a null terminator can cause reads beyond the field and packet buffer. An unauthenticated remote attacker who can send crafted UDP packets to the collector can trigger an out-of-bounds read and potentially crash the process, causing denial of service. No fixed release is available as of this review.
