Descriptions

The GTK version of ettercap uses a global settings file at /tmp/.ettercap_gtk and does not verify ownership of this file. When parsing this file for settings in gtkui_conf_read() (src/interfacesgtk/ec_gtk_conf.c), an unchecked sscanf() call allows a maliciously placed settings file to overflow a statically-sized buffer on the stack.

La versión GTK de ettercap utiliza un archivo de configuración global en /tmp/.ettercap_gtk y no verifica la propiedad de este archivo. Cuando se analiza este archivo en busca de configuraciones en gtkui_conf_read() (src/interfacesgtk/ec_gtk_conf.c), una llamada a sscanf() no verificada permite que un archivo de configuraciones malintencionado desborde un búfer de tamaño estático en la pila
