Improper Validation of Array Index (CWE-129) in multiple protocol parser components in Packetbeat can lead Denial of Service via Input Data Manipulation (CAPEC-153). An attacker with the ability to send specially crafted, malformed network packets to a monitored network interface can trigger out-of-bounds read operations, resulting in application crashes or resource exhaustion. This requires the attacker to be positioned on the same network segment as the Packetbeat deployment or to control traffic routed to monitored interfaces.

Improper Validation of Array Index (CWE-129) in the PostgreSQL protocol parser in Packetbeat can lead Denial of Service via Input Data Manipulation (CAPEC-153). An attacker can send a specially crafted packet causing a Go runtime panic that terminates the Packetbeat process. This vulnerability requires the pgsql protocol to be explicitly enabled and configured to monitor traffic on the targeted port.
