CVE-2026-18313 - rpcapd memory leak in libpcap before 1.10.7

Brief

CVE ID : CVE-2026-18313

Published : Sept. 5, 2026, 7:16 p. m.

Description : rpcapd can allocate up to 65536 bytes per each RPCAP_MSG_UPDATEFILTER_REQ or RPCAP_MSG_STARTCAP_REQ message received from the client, but it never frees the memory, so it leaks memory even under normal use. A malicious client can cause the server to leak memory substantially faster.

Severity: 4.3

  • MEDIUM
