Bloodshed Dev-C++ CPP Source File Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Bloodshed Dev-C++ is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized memory buffer.

An attacker can exploit this issue to crash the affected application, denying service to legitimate users, and may be able to execute arbitrary machine code, but this has not been confirmed.

Bloodshed Dev-C++ version 4.9.9.2 is affected by this issue; other versions may also be vulnerable.
