Descriptions

FATEK Automation WinProladder versions 3.30 and prior proper validation of user-supplied data when parsing project files, which could result in a stack-based buffer overflow. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code.

FATEK Automation WinProladder versiones 3.30 y anteriores, carece de una comprobación apropiada de los datos suministrados por el usuario cuando analiza los archivos de proyecto, que podría resultar en un desbordamiento del búfer en la región stack de la memoria. Un atacante podría aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código arbitrario

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Fatek Automation WinProladder. 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 PDW 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.
