Summary

FastNetMon, a DDoS detection and sensor tool, has a race condition in its IPv6 top-talkers display that can cause undefined behavior, and a crash is possible but unconfirmed. An attacker can trigger it remotely, without logging in, though the attack is harder to carry out and requires a specific IPv6 range to be monitored.

Read the original description

FastNetMon is a high-performance DDoS detector and sensor. In version 1.2.9 and earlier, FastNetMon's IPv6 top-talkers screen-draw thread in draw_table_ipv6() in src/fastnetmon_logic.cpp iterates ipv6_host_counters.average_speed_map without holding counter_map_mutex while recalculate_speed() inserts new keys and may rehash the same map. The race requires networks_list to include the targeted IPv6 range. It causes confirmed undefined behavior under load; a process crash is plausible but was not observed, so reliable denial of service has not been established. No fixed release is available as of this review.
