CVE-2024-31193
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedOut-of-bounds Read vulnerability in Open Networking Foundation (ONF) libfluid (libfluid_msg module). This vulnerability is associated with program routine fluid_msg::of13::MultipartReplyGroup::unpack. This issue affects libfluid: 0.1.0.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceOut-of-bounds Read vulnerability in libfluid's OpenFlow 1.3 MultipartReplyGroup::unpack function. The vulnerability occurs when parsing malformed OpenFlow group multipart reply messages, allowing reading memory outside allocated buffers. This could enable information disclosure or denial of service via specially crafted network packets.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Locate libfluid installationSearch for libfluid libraries or packages in your environment: look for files named libfluid*, or check package managers (dpkg -l, npm list, pip list, cargo list) for libfluid packagesAffected if libfluid is present and version is exactly 0.1.0
-
Identify libfluid versionRun version check command for the installed libfluid package or inspect the library's version file or metadata (e.g., package.json, Cargo.toml, or library source version.h)Affected if The reported version is 0.1.0
-
Confirm OpenFlow 1.3 usageInspect your application code or configuration for OpenFlow 1.3 protocol enablement (look for OF13, OF_1_3, or OpenFlow13 in config files and source code)Affected if OpenFlow 1.3 support is enabled in the environment
-
Verify multipart reply processingSearch source code for calls to MultipartReplyGroup::unpack or unpack_group functions, or trace network packet handling paths that process OFPT_MULTIPART_REPLY messagesAffected if The code processes OpenFlow multipart reply messages using the unpack function
You are affected if libfluid version 0.1.0 is installed and your environment processes OpenFlow 1.3 multipart reply messages using the vulnerable unpack function.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpgrade to a patched version of libfluid if available; otherwise implement input validation/sanitization of OpenFlow messages before calling the unpack function to ensure message length fields match expected structure bounds.
