Vulnerability in Brian Carrier The Slueth Kit

CVE-2007-4198

The fs_data_put_str function in ntfs.c in fls in Brian Carrier The Sleuth Kit (TSK) before 2.09 does not validate a certain length value, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and prevent examination of certain NTFS files via a malformed NTFS image, which triggers a buffer over-read.

EPSS: 0.014 (70.3th percentile) — read the EPSS interpretation.
