Technical details
This is a missing length validation vulnerability in Absolute Secure Access servers prior to version 14.61. The flaw allows authenticated attackers with valid credentials to cause a persistent denial of service condition during first-time connection by supplying input that lacks proper length bounds checking. Exploitation requires authentication, and the impact is availability degradation rather than data breach or code execution.
