Descriptions
Ashlar-Vellum Cobalt XE File Parsing Uninitialized Memory Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Ashlar-Vellum Cobalt. 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 XE files. The issue results from the lack of proper initialization of memory prior to accessing it. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-20200.
Vulnerabilidad de ejecución remota de código de memoria no inicializada en el análisis de archivos Ashlar-Vellum Cobalt XE. Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario en las instalaciones afectadas de Ashlar-Vellum Cobalt. Se requiere la interacción del usuario para aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad, ya que el objetivo debe visitar una página maliciosa o abrir un archivo malicioso. La falla específica existe en el análisis de archivos XE. El problema se debe a la falta de una inicialización adecuada de la memoria antes de acceder a ella. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código en el contexto del proceso actual. Era ZDI-CAN-20200.
