CVE-2017-11480 (GCVE-0-2017-11480)
Vulnerability from nvd – Published: 2017-12-08 18:00 – Updated: 2024-08-05 18:12
VLAI?
Summary
Packetbeat versions prior to 5.6.4 are affected by a denial of service flaw in the PostgreSQL protocol handler. If Packetbeat is listening for PostgreSQL traffic and a user is able to send arbitrary network traffic to the monitored port, the attacker could prevent Packetbeat from properly logging other PostgreSQL traffic.
Severity ?
No CVSS data available.

CVE-2017-11480 (GCVE-0-2017-11480)
Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2017-12-08 18:00 – Updated: 2024-08-05 18:12
VLAI?
Summary
Packetbeat versions prior to 5.6.4 are affected by a denial of service flaw in the PostgreSQL protocol handler. If Packetbeat is listening for PostgreSQL traffic and a user is able to send arbitrary network traffic to the monitored port, the attacker could prevent Packetbeat from properly logging other PostgreSQL traffic.
Severity ?
No CVSS data available.
