Necrosoft · Sockscap · CVE-2008-0378
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** SocksCap versions 2.40-051231 and earlier **Description** The issue is a stack-based buffer overflow that can be triggered when the "Resolve all names remotely" option is enabled. This can allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service, potentially leading to a crash, and may also enable the execution of arbitrary code via a long hostname. **Recommendations** For SocksCap versions 2.40-051231 and earlier, consider disabling the "Resolve all names remotely" option as a temporary workaround to minimize the risk of exploitation.
