CVE-2024-58350: Reliance on Undefined, Unspecified, or Implementation-Defined Behavior in nationalsecurityagency ghidra
Ghidra before 11.2 contains a use after free vulnerability in the Sleigh backend caused by undefined static initialization order of the SleighArchitecture::translators and XmlArchitectureCapability singletons. Attackers can trigger an infinite loop or denial of service during shutdown by exploiting the unsafe destruction order that causes iteration over deallocated memory.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-58350 is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Sleigh backend of Ghidra before version 11.2. It arises from undefined static initialization order of the SleighArchitecture::translators and XmlArchitectureCapability singletons. This unsafe destruction order can lead to iteration over memory that has already been deallocated, potentially causing an infinite loop or denial of service during application shutdown.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability can cause denial of service by triggering an infinite loop or crash during shutdown of the affected Ghidra versions. There is no indication of privilege escalation, data disclosure, or remote code execution. The CVSS score of 2.1 reflects a low impact with local attack vector and low attack complexity.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or remediation level is currently confirmed. Users should upgrade to Ghidra version 11.2 or later once available to address this issue. Until then, be aware of potential shutdown instability in affected versions. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance.
