HighMetricsAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
BusyBox versions prior to 1.35.0
Description
The issue is related to the lack of input sanitization in the BusyBox command-line utility set, specifically affecting the netstat utility when printing DNS PTR records to a VT-compatible terminal. This could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or change the terminal's colors.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 1.35.0, update to version 1.35.0 or later to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the netstat utility with DNS PTR records on VT-compatible terminals until a patch is available.
