CVE-2024-5991 is fixed in wolfssl on 1 platform by DEBIAN-CVE-2024-5991 (version 5.7.2-0.1), released August 27, 2024. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High.
In function MatchDomainName(), input param str is treated as a NULL terminated string despite being user provided and unchecked. Specifically, the function X509_check_host() takes in a pointer and length to check against, with no requirements that it be NULL terminated. If a caller was attempting to do a name check on a non-NULL terminated buffer, the code would read beyond the bounds of the input array until it found a NULL terminator.This issue affects wolfSSL: through 5.7.0.
