tftp-5.2-28.el8_10.ML.1

The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is typically used only for booting diskless workstations. The tftp packages include the tftp and tftp-server subpackages. The tftp subpackage provides the user interface for TFTP and the tftp-server subpackage provides the server. This allows users to transfer files to and from a remote machine.

Security Fix(es):

* tftp: tftp-hpa: Denial of Service due to out-of-bounds read/write in remap engine (CVE-2026-85234)

CVE-2026-85234
A flaw was found in tftp-hpa. When the `in.tftpd` remap engine processes an inverse remap rule that also aborts with a non-empty custom error message, it can pass invalid match offsets to the `genmatchstring()` function. This leads to out-of-bounds read/write operations. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted request, causing the daemon to crash and resulting in a denial of service.
