Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer Overflow or Wraparound in the mod_sftp SCP size-record parser. An attacker can cause the server to read beyond the end of SSH channel data and write overread process memory into the uploaded file by sending a specially crafted file size value, potentially exposing sensitive memory contents such as pointers to libraries and enabling further exploitation.
