Title: 010 Editor File Parsing Multiple Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities
Severity: HIGH
Description:
010 Editor is a text and hex editor. It also supports custom templates that are used to parse different file formats.
The application is prone to multiple stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input. These issues occur when the application opens malicious templates and script files containing overly long strings.
Successfully exploiting these issues may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed exploit attempts will cause denial-of-service conditions.
UPDATE (April 22, 2009): Since script files and templates may include script code used to automate editor functions, the privilege gained by a successful exploit is disputed. Please see the references for more information. We will update this BID as more information emerges.
Versions prior to 010 Editor 3.0.5 are vulnerable.
Affected Products:
- SweetScape Software 010 Editor 3.0.4
