Swtpm: swtpm: out-of-bounds read in swtpm_nvram_checkheader due to sizeof(pointer) vs sizeof(struct) mismatch

AI Analysis

No AI analysis yet.

Description

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in swtpm's SWTPM_NVRAM_CheckHeader() function. The entry guard checks the buffer length against sizeof(bh), where bh is a pointer, instead of sizeof(*bh), the actual struct size. This allows an undersized buffer to pass validation, causing a 2-byte heap overread on 64-bit systems (6 bytes on 32-bit) when accessing the totlen field. This may cause daemon termination on some platforms and leaks heap data to the log.
