NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rh-mongodb30upg-yaml-cpp-devel package and not the rh-mongodb30upg-yaml-cpp-devel package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The function "Token& Scanner::peek" in scanner.cpp in yaml-cpp 0.5.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit) via a '!2' string.
