NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openslp-dfsg package and not the openslp-dfsg package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

The extension parser in slp_v2message.c in OpenSLP 1.2.1, and other versions before SVN revision 1647, as used in Service Location Protocol daemon (SLPD) in VMware ESX 4.0 and 4.1 and ESXi 4.0 and 4.1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a packet with a "next extension offset" that references this extension or a previous extension. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
