CVE-2026-63451— Suricata detect: frame rules without content and with transform can cause heap buffer overflow during rule load

Quick assessment

Affected
OISF suricata
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Suricata 是一个网络入侵检测系统(IDS)、入侵防御系统(IPS)以及网络安全监控引擎。在 8.0.0 到 8.0.6 版本中,如果本地提供的检测规则将“无内容的帧检查”与“无内容的转换匹配”组合使用,可能导致 在为非预过滤检查准备签名时,选择多个非预过滤帧引擎。加载经过构造的规则(包括在测试模式下)可能触发堆缓冲区溢出并导致 Suricata 崩溃;仅通过网络流量无法触发该漏洞。该问题已在 8.0.6 版本中修复。

Vulnerability Title
Suricata detect: frame rules without content and with transform can cause heap buffer overflow during rule load
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Suricata is a network Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention System and Network Security Monitoring engine. From 8.0.0 until 8.0.6, a locally supplied detection rule that combines frame inspection without content and a transformed match without content can make src/detect-engine-prefilter.c select multiple non-prefilter frame engines while preparing signatures for non-prefilter inspection. Loading the crafted rule, including in test mode, can trigger a heap buffer overflow and crash Suricata; network traffic alone cannot reach the flaw. This issue is fixed in version 8.0.6.
