Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Panasonic Security API (PS-API) ActiveX SDK versions prior to 8.10.18

Description The issue concerns stack-based buffer overflows in the Ipropsapi component of the Panasonic Security API (PS-API) ActiveX SDK. This can be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string in the FilePassword property or to the GetStringInfo method.

Recommendations For versions prior to 8.10.18, update to version 8.10.18 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the FilePassword property and the GetStringInfo method until a patch is applied. Avoid using long strings in these components to minimize the risk of exploitation.
