Last modified

CVE-2015-8041 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Multiple integer overflows in the NDEF record parser in hostapd before 2.5 and wpa_supplicant before 2.5 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash or infinite loop) via a large payload length field value in an (1) WPS or (2) P2P NFC NDEF record, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.. EPSS estimates a 3.41% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
