CVE-2026-70405— snmp BER INTEGER decoder applies no size limit to attacker-supplied integer fields

Quick assessment

Affected
Erlang OTP
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.

在 Erlang/OTP 的 snmp 模块中，存在一个“输入中指定数量验证不当”的漏洞，允许远程攻击者通过发送一条包含长度字段任意大的 BER 整数（INTEGER）的 SNMP 消息，从而降低系统的可用性。 具体来说， 默认将大小限制设为无穷大，随后 会对声明的每个字节进行累加，通过递归移位和按位或运算来计算数值。由于每次操作作用于逐渐变大的大整数（bignum），其工作量随声明的长度呈超线性增长。虽然存在一个带大小限制的变体 ，但该变体仅从单一调用点 被调用，用于将版本字段限制在 10 个字节以内；而请求标识

Vulnerability Title
snmp BER INTEGER decoder applies no size limit to attacker-supplied integer fields
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input vulnerability in Erlang/OTP snmp allows a remote attacker to degrade availability by sending an SNMP message containing a BER INTEGER whose length field is arbitrarily large. snmp_pdus:dec_integer_notag/1 defaults its size limit to infinity, and do_dec_integer_notag/2 then accumulates the value across every declared byte with a recursive shift and bitwise or. Work grows superlinearly in the declared length because each operation acts on a progressively larger bignum. The size-limited variant dec_integer_notag/2 exists but is reached from only one call site, dec_snmp_version/1, which bounds the version field to ten bytes; the request identifier, error status and index, generic and specific trap fields, engine boots and time, and every varbind value decoded by dec_value/1 all use the unbounded form. The decode runs before the PDU is processed, so no valid request is required beyond what the deployment demands to accept the message at all. This issue affects OTP from OTP 17.0 before OTP 27.3.4.17, from OTP 28.0 before OTP 28.5.0.6, and from OTP 29.0 before OTP 29.0.6, corresponding to snmp from 4.25.1 before 5.18.2.1, from 5.19 before 5.20.2.2, and from 5.20.3 before 5.20.5. Whether OTP before OTP 17.0, corresponding to snmp before 4.25.1, is affected is unknown.
