Netopeer2 is a NETCONF server used for network configuration management. A low-privileged authenticated user can send a get request with a crafted subtree filter that makes netopeer2-server crash, a denial of service.
Summary written from the sources below. Check the originals before acting.

Systems running netopeer2-server where authenticated NETCONF users can send get RPCs, including low-privileged accounts. The advisory confirmed the crash on version 2.8.7 over NETCONF-over-SSH. Teams that do not run Netopeer2 or do not expose NETCONF to users can skip it.

2.8.21 (fix verified by repository comparison)2.8.8 as patched, but no public 2.8.8 tag was located, so an untagged 2.8.8 build is unverifiedEach row is the first time that source carried this signal. The analyst’s rows are its own findings.
Netopeer2 is a server for implementing network configuration management based on the NETCONF Protocol. In affected versions, a low-privileged authenticated NETCONF user can remotely crash netopeer2-server by sending a get RPC with an invalid subtree filter whose text contains format specifiers. In src/netconf.c, np2srv_rpc_get_cb() sends the invalid value through ERR() to np2log_printf(), where vsnprintf() first formats the message safely. In src/log.c, that already formatted buffer is subsequently passed to np2log() as the format string itself, causing vsyslog() to interpret attacker-controlled percent sequences and read invalid pointer arguments. The reported denial of service was confirmed on version 2.8.7 using NETCONF-over-SSH and AddressSanitizer; reliable remote code execution was not confirmed. The advisory identifies 2.8.8 as patched; repository comparisons verify the fix in public release 2.8.21. The affected/fixed boundary remains unresolved because no public 2.8.8 tag was located, which does not establish the status of an untagged 2.8.8 build.
