CVE-2008-2149
CVSS v2.0
7.5

| Vetor | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Wordnet versions 2.0 through 3.0
Description
A stack-based buffer overflow issue exists in the searchwn function, potentially allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long command line option. This issue is unlikely to cross privilege boundaries, except when Wordnet is used as a back end.
Recommendations
For versions 2.0 through 3.0, consider restricting the use of the searchwn function until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using long command line options with the searchwn function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
