<impact type="normal">
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>A context-dependent attacker could cause an application linked against
|
|
|
|
|
|
hivex to pass a short or truncated hive file, possibly resulting in
|
|
|
|
|
|
execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a
|
|
|
|
|
|
Denial of Service condition.
