Descriptions

FATEK Automation WinProladder versions 3.30 and prior is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds read, which may allow an attacker to read unauthorized information.

FATEK Automation WinProladder versiones 3.30 y anteriores, es vulnerable a una lectura fuera de límites, que podría permitir a un atacante leer información no autorizada

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information 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 user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.
