In mjs_json.c in Cesanta MongooseOS mJS 1.26, a maliciously formed JSON string can trigger an off-by-one heap-based buffer overflow in mjs_json_parse, which can potentially lead to redirection of control flow. NOTE: the original reporter disputes the significance of this finding because "there isn’t very much of an opportunity to exploit this reliably for an information leak, so there isn’t any real security impact."
The mg_http_serve_file function in Cesanta Mongoose HTTP server 7.0 is vulnerable to remote OOB write attack via connection request after exhausting memory pool.
The mg_tls_init function in Cesanta Mongoose HTTPS server 7.0 and 6.7-6.18 (compiled with mbedTLS support) is vulnerable to remote OOB write attack via connection request after exhausting memory pool.
The mg_tls_init function in Cesanta Mongoose HTTPS server 7.0 (compiled with OpenSSL support) is vulnerable to remote OOB write attack via connection request after exhausting memory pool.
A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the mg_get_http_header function in Cesanta Mongoose 6.18 due to a lack of bounds checking. A crafted HTTP header can exploit this bug. NOTE: a committer has stated "this will not happen in practice.
An integer overflow in parse_mqtt in mongoose.c in Cesanta Mongoose 6.16 allows an attacker to achieve remote DoS (infinite loop), or possibly cause an out-of-bounds write, by sending a crafted MQTT protocol packet.
Use-after-free vulnerability in the mg_cgi_ev_handler function in mongoose.c in Cesanta Mongoose Embedded Web Server Library 6.13 and earlier allows a denial of service (application crash) or remote code execution.
