Heap Buffer Overflow in ShadowsocksR: How a Missing Bounds Check Could Let Attackers Crash Your Server

A critical heap buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered in ShadowsocksR-libev's server.c, where network-supplied data was copied into fixed-size heap buffers without verifying that the source length fit within the destination. An attacker could craft a malicious packet with an oversized length field to overflow the heap, potentially enabling remote code execution or denial of service. The fix adds proper bounds checking, null pointer validation after memory allocation, and reallocation fail
