OESA-2021-1031 (CVE-2019-13456)
Vulnerability from osv_openeuler – Published: 2021-02-05 11:04 – Updated: 2026-08-06 11:04 – Source websiteRemote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) is a networking protocol that provides centralized Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA or Triple A) management for users who connect and use a network service.\r\n\r\n Security Fix(es):\r\n\r\n In FreeRADIUS 3.0 through 3.0.19, on average 1 in every 2048 EAP-pwd handshakes fails because the password element cannot be found within 10 iterations of the hunting and pecking loop.
