The DHCP client application assumes that the data supplied with the Hostname DHCP option is NULL terminated. In cases when global hostname variable is not defined, this may lead to Out-of-bound reads, writes, and Denial-of-service conditions. (FSMD-2021-0014)

NVD

Weakness Type

Improper Null Termination

The software does not terminate or incorrectly terminates a string or array with a null character or equivalent terminator. Null termination errors frequently occur in two different ways. An off-by-one error could cause a null to be written out of bounds, leading to an overflow. Or, a program could use a strncpy() function call incorrectly, which prevents a null terminator from being added at all. Other scenarios are possible.
