NVD Description

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

An exploitable incorrect return value vulnerability exists in the mp_check function of Tarantool's Msgpuck library 1.0.3. A specially crafted packet can cause the mp_check function to incorrectly return success when trying to check if decoding a map16 packet will read outside the bounds of a buffer, resulting in a denial of service vulnerability.
