Discussion

Zaptel SetHDLC.C Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Zaptel is prone to a local buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.

Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application using the library. Successful exploits can compromise affected applications and possibly the underlying computer. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial of service.

Zaptel 1.4.5.1 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

NOTE: Further reports indicate that an attacker would need superuser privileges to exploit this issue.
