- 8.8HighNov 10, 2026ettercap Memory corruptionCVE-2026-125406Ettercap through 0.8.4.1 contains a stack buffer underwrite vulnerability in the telnet dissector in src/dissectors/ec_telnet.c that decrements the output pointer on backspace without a lower bound check. Attackers can send a telnet stream with more backspaces than preceding characters to write below the stack buffer, corrupting the stack of the Ettercap process that normally runs as root.
- 8.1HighNov 10, 2026ettercap Memory corruptionCVE-2026-125405Ettercap through 0.8.4.1 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in Parse_NTLM_Auth() in src/dissectors/ec_http.c due to unvalidated NTLM message offsets. Attackers can send a crafted HTTP Authorization header observed by Ettercap to read beyond the buffer, disclosing memory or crashing the process.
- 7.5HighNov 10, 2026ettercap Memory corruptionCVE-2026-125404Ettercap through 0.8.4.1 contains an integer underflow in ccmp_decrypt() in src/ec_encryption_ccmp.c that subtracts the 8-byte CCMP trailer without checking minimum length. Attackers on a network whose WPA key is loaded can send a short crafted CCMP frame to overflow a stack buffer in the Ettercap process, which normally runs as root.
- 8.1HighNov 10, 2026ettercap Memory corruptionCVE-2026-125403Ettercap through 0.8.4.1 contains an out-of-bounds read and size_t underflow vulnerability in sslw_remove_sts() in src/ec_sslwrap.c, caused by a stale length and an unchecked memmem() result when stripping Strict-Transport-Security headers. A malicious HTTPS server whose response passes through Ettercap's SSL interception can trigger out-of-bounds reads and memory corruption in the Ettercap process, which normally runs as root.
- 8.1HighNov 10, 2026ettercap Memory corruptionCVE-2026-125402Ettercap through 0.8.4.1 contains a heap out-of-bounds read vulnerability in sslw_get_clienthello_sni() in src/ec_sslwrap.c that trusts the unchecked 16-bit SNI length field. Network-adjacent attackers can send crafted TLS ClientHello messages during SSL interception to leak up to 64 KB of heap memory upstream or crash Ettercap.
- 8.1HighNov 10, 2026ettercap Memory corruptionCVE-2026-125401Ettercap through 0.8.4.1 contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in gg_get_version() in src/dissectors/ec_gg.c that writes up to 44 bytes into a 30-byte allocation. Remote attackers can send Gadu-Gadu traffic on TCP port 8074 with a crafted version field through a monitored network to corrupt heap memory in the Ettercap process, which normally runs as root.
- 8.8HighNov 10, 2026ettercap Memory corruptionCVE-2026-125400Ettercap through 0.8.4.1 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in func_pcre() in src/ec_filter.c that reads the PCRE2 ovector after freeing match data. Network-adjacent attackers can send packets matching a loaded pcre_regex() substitution filter to corrupt memory and potentially execute code as root.
