Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-835: Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop'), where the product contains an iteration or loop with an exit condition that cannot be reached, i.e., an infinite loop. In Github.com/btcsuite/go socks, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

The `RemoteAddr` and `LocalAddr` methods on the returned `net.Conn` may call themselves, leading to an infinite loop which will crash the program due to a stack overflow.
