CVE-2026-18238

EUVD-2026-72021
The rpcap client code that processes a RPCAP_MSG_PACKET message received from the server incorrectly validates its headers.  A malicious server can send a crafted message and cause the client to treat up to 20 bytes of the client process memory beyond the end of the buffer as if it was a part of the captured packet.
