Technical details

A vulnerability in Pion DTLS (specifically the Go implementation) allows a remote attacker to trigger a panic, leading to a denial of service. The issue is classified as an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125) that occurs during the parsing of a crafted ECDHE_PSK ServerKeyExchange message. An attacker can exploit this by sending a malformed handshake message over the network without requiring any prior authentication. The vulnerability is addressed in version 3.1.4, which includes a fix for the improper parsing logic.
