CVE-2021-31401 Information

Description

An issue was discovered in tcp_rcv() in nptcp.c in HCC embedded InterNiche 4.0.1. The TCP header processing code doesn’t sanitize the value of the IP total length field (header length + data length). With a crafted IP packet an integer overflow occurs whenever the value of the IP data length is calculated by subtracting the length of the header from the total length of the IP packet.
