Descriptions

LAquis SCADA Versions 4.1.0.3870 and prior has several stack-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities, which may allow remote code execution.

LAquis SCADA en versiones 4.1.0.3870 y anteriores tiene varias vulnerabilidades de desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila que podrían permitir la ejecución remota de código.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of LAquis SCADA. 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 editorldriver.exe. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this functionality to execute code in the context of the current process.
