Comments: To: scientific 

Synopsis:          Moderate: freeradius security update
Issue date:        2007-05-10
CVE Names:         CVE-2007-2028

A memory leak flaw was found in the way FreeRADIUS parses certain
authentication requests. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted
authentication request which could cause FreeRADIUS to leak a small amount
of memory. If enough of these requests are sent, the FreeRADIUS daemon
would consume a vast quantity of system memory leading to a possible denial
of service.   (CVE-2007-2028)
