NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ppp package and not the ppp package as distributed by Debian.

Improper input validation together with an integer overflow in the EAP-TLS protocol implementation in PPPD may cause a crash, information disclosure, or authentication bypass. This implementation is distributed as a patch for PPPD 0.91, and includes the affected eap.c and eap-tls.c files. Configurations that use the refuse-app option are unaffected.
