Overview

gRPC is a modern, open source, high-performance remote procedure call (RPC) framework that can run anywhere.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Write caused by a heap-based buffer overflow related to the parse_unix function in core/ext/client_channel/parse_address.c.
