VULHUB ™

Multiple vendors are prone to an integer-overflow weakness. The return value of 'inet_net_pton()' is expected to be 0 or greater on success, or -1 on error. This integer-overflow weakness results in large negative values being returned. The affected function itself is not directly exploitable, but if its return value is used in further processing, it may expose third-party applications to vulnerabilities. This issue affects OpenBSD 4.3, Mac OS X 10.5, and ISC BIND 9.5.0-P2; other platforms and versions may also be affected.
