Integer overflow in the ndn_parse_sequence function in CCN-lite before 2.00 allows context-dependent attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors involving the typ and vallen variables.
The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.
