NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream radare2 package and not the radare2 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

In radare2 prior to 3.1.1, the parseOperand function inside libr/asm/p/asm_x86_nz.c may allow attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash in libr/util/strbuf.c via a stack-based buffer over-read) by crafting an input file, a related issue to CVE-2018-20455.
