NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream virt:rhel/libvirt-daemon-config-network package and not the virt:rhel/libvirt-daemon-config-network package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the hivex library in versions before 1.3.20. It is caused due to a lack of bounds check within the hivex_open function. An attacker could input a specially crafted Windows Registry (hive) file which would cause hivex to read memory beyond its normal bounds or cause the program to crash. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
