Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Confidentiality
Technical Impact: Read Memory
Confidentiality
Technical Impact: Bypass Protection Mechanism
By reading out-of-bounds memory, an attacker might be able to get secret values, such as memory addresses, which can bypass protection mechanisms such as ASLR in order to improve the reliability and likelihood of exploiting a separate weakness to achieve code execution instead of just denial of service.
Availability,Integrity
Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart
An attacker might be able to cause a crash or other denial of service by causing the product to read a memory location that is not allowed (such as a segmentation fault), or to cause other conditions in which the read operation returns more data than is expected.
