Description
A flaw was found in freeradius's Extensible Authentication Protocol Method for Subscriber Identity Module (EAP-SIM) module. When handling authentication requests, the server copies a client-supplied identity into an internal structure without properly checking its length against a fixed-size buffer. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this issue by sending specially crafted EAP-SIM messages, triggering a stack buffer overflow that crashes the service and results in a Denial of Service (DoS).
