Descriptions

Mitsubishi E-Designer, Version 7.52 Build 344 contains five code sections which may be exploited to overwrite the heap. This can result in arbitrary code execution, compromised data integrity, denial of service, and system crash.

Mitsubishi E-Designer, Version 7.52 Build 344, contiene cinco secciones de código que podrían ser explotadas para sobrescribir la memoria dinámica (heap). Esto puede resultar en la ejecución de código arbitrario, el compromiso de la integridad de los datos, denegación de servicio (DoS) y cierre inesperado del sistema.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Mitsubishi Electric E-Designer. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within processing of a driver configuration file when initializing the BEMatsushita component. When parsing the property TCP_IP_Address, the process fails to properly validate the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code in the context of the Administrator.
