On 64-bit systems, values exceeding UINT_MAX are\nsilently truncated before computing the SIP message boundary.\n\nFor example, Content-Length 4294967328 (2^32 + 32) is truncated to 32,\ncausing the parser to miscalculate where the current message ends.  The\nloop then treats trailing data in the TCP segment as a second SIP\nmessage and processes it through the SDP parser.\n\nFix this by changing clen to unsigned long to match the return type of\nsimple_strtoul(), and reject Content-Length values that exceed the\nremaining TCP payload length.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H","score":8.6},"cwes":["CWE-190"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/528b4509c9dfc272e2e92d811915e5211650d383","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/75fcaee5170e7dbbee778927134ef2e9568b4659","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/865dba58958c3a86786f89a501971ab0e3ec6ba9","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b75209debb9adab287b3caa982f77788c1e15027","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cd1b7403ec835f8a0b3f1f7e68ac26af2cb1e42f"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:43:09.190223697+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-23457","score":0.00433,"percentile":0.37338,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
