Integer overflow in the ordered_malloc function in boost/pool/pool.hpp in Boost Pool before 3.9 makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to perform memory-related attacks such as buffer overflows via a large memory chunk size value, which causes less memory to be allocated than expected.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Pool Boost * 1.0.0 (including)
Pool Boost 2.0.0 (including) 2.0.0 (including)
