Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions TiEmu versions 2.08 and prior

Description TiEmu versions 2.08 and earlier are susceptible to a stack-based buffer overflow due to insufficient boundary checks on user-provided input. Attackers can exploit this by providing crafted command-line arguments to the application. This allows them to trigger the overflow, bypass security measures using Return-Oriented Programming (ROP) gadgets, and execute arbitrary shellcode within the application's context.

Recommendations Update TiEmu to a version later than 2.08.
