CVE-2025-68276

Avahi is a system which facilitates service discovery on a local network via the mDNS/DNS-SD protocol suite. In 0.9-rc2 and earlier, an unprivileged local users can crash avahi-daemon (with wide-area disabled) by creating record browsers with the AVAHI_LOOKUP_USE_WIDE_AREA flag set via D-Bus. This can be done by either calling the RecordBrowserNew method directly or creating hostname/address/service resolvers/browsers that create those browsers internally themselves.

Summary
  • (es) Avahi es un sistema que facilita el descubrimiento de servicios en una red local a través de la suite de protocolos mDNS/DNS-SD. En 0.9-rc2 y versiones anteriores, un usuario local sin privilegios puede bloquear avahi-daemon (con el área extendida deshabilitada) creando navegadores de registros con la bandera AVAHI_LOOKUP_USE_WIDE_AREA establecida a través de D-Bus. Esto se puede hacer ya sea llamando directamente al método RecordBrowserNew o creando resolutores/navegadores de nombre de host/dirección/servicio que crean esos navegadores internamente por sí mismos.
