|
|
|
<p>A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in TCPTrack’s
|
|
|
|
|
|
parsing of command line arguments. This is only a vulnerability in
|
|
|
|
|
|
limited scenarios in which TCPTrack is “configured as a handler for
|
|
|
|
|
|
other applications.”

<p>A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the

privileges of the process or cause a Denial of Service condition with a

specially crafted command-line argument.

<code>
