NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gpsd-debugsource package and not the gpsd-debugsource package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

An integer underflow vulnerability exists in the nextstate() function in gpsd/packet.c of gpsd versions prior to commit ffa1d6f40bca0b035fc7f5e563160ebb67199da7. When parsing a NAVCOM packet, the payload length is calculated using lexer-&gt;length = (size_t)c - 4 without checking if the input byte c is less than 4. This results in an unsigned integer underflow, setting lexer-&gt;length to a very large value (near SIZE_MAX). The parser then enters a loop attempting to consume this massive number of bytes, causing 100% CPU utilization and a Denial of Service (DoS) condition.
