Descriptions

Texas Instruments devices running FREERTOS, malloc returns a valid
pointer to a small buffer on extremely large values, which can trigger
an integer overflow vulnerability in 'malloc' for FreeRTOS, resulting in
code execution.

En los dispositivos de Texas Instruments que ejecutan FREERTOS, malloc devuelve un puntero válido a un pequeño búfer en valores extremadamente grandes, lo que puede desencadenar una vulnerabilidad de desbordamiento de enteros en 'malloc' para FreeRTOS, lo que resulta en la ejecución de código.
