A vulnerability has been found in GNU ncurses up to 6.5-20250322 and classified as problematic. This vulnerability affects the function postprocess_termcap of the file tinfo/parse_entry.c. The manipulation leads to stack-based buffer overflow. The attack needs to be approached locally. Upgrading to version 6.5-20250329 is able to address this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.
A flaw was found in gnu-ncurses. The postprocess_termcap function in tinfo/parse_entry.c is susceptible to a stack-based buffer overflow due to improper bounds checking during termcap entry processing. This flaw allows a local attacker to trigger the overflow via a crafted termcap file, leading to a denial of service.
