Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
ezXML versions 0.8.6 and earlier
Description
The issue is related to the
ezxml new function in ezXML, which is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds (OOB) write when opening an XML file after exhausting the memory pool. This can allow a remote attacker to compromise data integrity and cause a denial of service.Recommendations
For ezXML versions 0.8.6 and earlier, consider disabling the
ezxml new function until a patch is available to prevent potential exploitation. Restrict access to XML files to minimize the risk of OOB write attacks.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Exploit
