There are 11 open security issues in forky.

11 important issues:

CVE-2026-44053: Netatalk 1.5.0 through 4.2.2 uses a broken cryptographic algorithm in the DHCAST128 UAM, which allows a remote attacker to obtain authentication credentials or impersonate a user via cryptanalytic attack.

3 security issues in buster high

There are 3 open security issues in buster.

3 important issues:

CVE-2024-38439: Netatalk 3.2.0 has an off-by-one error and resultant heap-based buffer overflow because of setting ibuf[PASSWDLEN] to '\0' in FPLoginExt in login in etc/uams/uams_pam.c.
CVE-2024-38440: Netatalk 3.2.0 has an off-by-one error, and resultant heap-based buffer overflow and segmentation violation, because of incorrectly using FPLoginExt in BN_bin2bn in etc/uams/uams_dhx_pam.c. The original issue 1097 report stated: 'The latest version of Netatalk (v3.2.0) contains a security vulnerability. This vulnerability arises due to a lack of validation for the length field after parsing user-provided data, leading to an out-of-bounds heap write of one byte (\0). Under specific configurations, this can result in reading metadata of the next heap block, potentially causing a Denial of Service (DoS) under certain heap layouts or with ASAN enabled. ... The vulnerability is located in the FPLoginExt operation of Netatalk, in the BN_bin2bn function found in /etc/uams/uams_dhx_pam.c ... if (!(bn = BN_bin2bn((unsigned char *)ibuf, KEYSIZE, NULL))) ... threads ...
