NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tor package and not the tor package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in Tor before 0.2.2.35 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly execute arbitrary code by (1) establishing a SOCKS connection to SocksPort or (2) leveraging a SOCKS proxy configuration.
