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 · unedited
A vulnerability was determined in osrg GoBGP up to 4.3.0. Affected by this vulnerability is the function parseRibEntry of the file pkg/packet/mrt/mrt.go. Executing a manipulation can lead to integer underflow. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. Upgrading to version 4.4.0 addresses this issue. This patch is called 76d911046344a3923cbe573364197aa081944592. It is suggested to upgrade the affected component.

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
How this class of weakness works · CWE-189

A legacy NVD category grouping numeric mistakes — overflows, truncation, sign errors — where a miscalculated value goes on to drive a dangerous decision such as a memory allocation or a bounds check. It is a bucket rather than one specific bug. Remediation is checked arithmetic and validating any computed size or index before it is used.

General guidance for the numeric errors class — the official description and references above are authoritative for this specific CVE. Want a bespoke review and a reviewed fix? Ask our team →

Recommended fix High confidence

4.4.0

  1. 1. Identify the current GoBGP version currently installed (e.g., gobgp --version or check package manager)
  2. 2. Stop any running GoBGP services before upgrading
  3. 3. Upgrade GoBGP to version 4.4.0 or later. For Go module usage: run 'go get github.com/osrg/gobgp/[email protected]' or use the latest tag
  4. 4. Alternatively, download the binary release for version 4.4.0 from the official GoBGP releases page
  5. 5. After installation, verify the version has been updated (gobgp --version)
  6. 6. Restart the GoBGP service and verify normal operation
