Descriptions

Eaton 9000X DriveA versions 2.0.29 and prior has a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability, which may allow remote code execution.

Eaton 9000X DriveA en versiones 2.0.29 y anteriores tiene un desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila que podría permitir la ejecución remota de código.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Eaton 9000XDrive. 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 the processing of a TLF file. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
