NVD Description

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

An issue was discovered in py-lmdb 0.97. For certain values of md_flags, mdb_node_add does not properly set up a memcpy destination, leading to an invalid write operation. NOTE: this outcome occurs when accessing a data.mdb file supplied by an attacker.
