Este problema puede permitir que un atacante desencadene fallas de asignación de memoria a través de ciertos medios, como restringir el tamaño del espacio del montón o inyectar fallas, lo que provoca una falla de segmentación. Esto puede provocar un fallo de la aplicación y, en última instancia, provocar una denegación de servicio."
