Summary
traceroute-nanog 6.1.1 allows local users to overwrite unauthorized memory and possibly execute arbitrary code via certain "nprobes" and "max_ttl" arguments that cause an integer overflow that is used when allocating memory, which leads to a buffer overflow.
Exploit prediction
2.80% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 86% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-08).
