CVE-2016-4303 not yet assigned priority: Debian including 1 source packages (iperf3), 5 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 5.
The parse_string function in cjson.c in the cJSON library mishandles UTF8/16 strings, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via a non-hex character in a JSON string, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
