Discussion

ESRI ArcSDE Server SPrintf Function Stack Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

ESRI ArcSDE Server is prone to a stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized buffer.

An attacker can exploit this issue on an affected computer to execute code in the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition.

ArcSDE Server 9.2 is vulnerable; prior versions may also be affected.
