The branch stable/14 has been updated by markj: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=1cbd6e148249760df4c07c12f77a336ddad909b9 commit 1cbd6e148249760df4c07c12f77a336ddad909b9 Author: Mariusz Zaborski <oshogbo@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2026-04-28 14:36:09 +0000 Commit: Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2026-04-29 14:45:05 +0000 libnv: fix heap overflow in nvlist_recv() nvlist_check_header() validated nvlh_size for overflow before performing conversion. An mallicous user can set NV_FLAG_BIG_ENDIAN in the header and craft nvlh_size so that the orginall value passes the check, but after the conversion the sizeof(nvlist_header) + size can overflow. This can lead to a heap buffer overflow.
