CVE-2025-64330: Suricata is vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow on verdict
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 30/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.39% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: suricata (Debian:13) 1:7.0.10-1+deb13u2; suricata (Debian:14) 1:8.0.2-1; suricata (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 8.0.3-1.1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to suricata (Debian:13) 1:7.0.10-1+deb13u2; suricata (Debian:14) 1:8.0.2-1; suricata (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 8.0.3-1.1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Suricata is a network IDS, IPS and NSM engine developed by the OISF (Open Information Security Foundation) and the Suricata community. Prior to versions 7.0.13 and 8.0.2, a single byte read heap overflow when logging the verdict in eve.alert and eve.drop records can lead to crashes. This requires the per packet alert queue to be filled with alerts and then followed by a pass rule. This issue has been patched in versions 7.0.13 and 8.0.2. To reduce the likelihood of this issue occurring, the alert queue size a should be increased (packet-alert-max in suricata.yaml) if verdict is enabled.
