NVD Description

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

A stack-based buffer over-read exists in setbit() at iptree.h of TCPFLOW 1.5.0, due to received incorrect values causing incorrect computation, leading to denial of service during an address_histogram call or a get_histogram call.
