Descriptions

Multiple buffer overflow issues have been identified in Alpha5 Smart Loader: All versions prior to 4.2. An attacker could use specially crafted project files to overflow the buffer and execute code under the privileges of the application.

Se han identificado varios problemas de desbordamiento de búfer en Alpha5 Smart Loader: Todas las versiones anteriores a 4.2. Un atacante podría usar archivos de proyecto especialmente diseñados para desbordar el búfer y ejecutar código bajo los privilegios de la aplicación.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Fuji Electric Alpha5. 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 parsing of WPA files. 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 vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
