Security update for iperf


Type: security
Severity: important
Issued: 2025-08-11
Description:
This update for iperf fixes the following issues:

- update to 3.19.1:
  * CVE-2025-54351: Fixed buffer overflow in net.c (bsc#1247522)
  * CVE-2025-54350: Fixed Base64Decode assertion failure and application 
    exit upon a malformed authentication attempt (bsc#1247520)
  * CVE-2025-54349: Fixed off-by-one error and resultant heap-based 
    buffer overflow (bsc#1247519)

- update to 3.19:
  * iperf3 now supports the use of Multi-Path TCP (MPTCPv1) on Linux
    with the use of the `-m` or `--mptcp` flag. (PR #1661)
  * iperf3 now supports a `--cntl-ka` option to enable TCP keepalives
    on the control connection. (#812, #835, PR #1423)
  * iperf3 now supports the `MSG_TRUNC` receive option, specified by
    the `--skip-rx-copy`. This theoretically improves the rated
    throughput of tests at high bitrates by not delivering network
    payload data to userspace. (#1678, PR #1717)
  * A bug that caused the bitrate setting to be ignored when bursts
    are set, has been fixed. (#1773, #1820, PR #1821, PR #1848)
  * The congestion control protocol setting, if used, is now
    properly reset between tests. (PR #1812)
  * iperf3 now exits with a non-error 0 exit code if exiting via a
    `SIGTERM`, `SIGHUP`, or `SIGINT`. (#1009, PR# 1829)
  * The current behavior of iperf3 with respect to the `-n` and `-k`
    options is now documented as correct. (#1768, #1775, #596, PR #1800)
