NVD Description

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

ntop nDPI versions before 6.0 contain a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in the ndpi_json_string_escape function that writes beyond caller-supplied buffer boundaries. Attackers can trigger the overflow by supplying crafted network packet data including TLS SNI, HTTP headers, or DNS names that reach the vulnerable function, causing heap corruption.
