Discussion

TCPreen 'FD_SET()' Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

TCPreen is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer.

An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected application. Successful attacks may compromise affected computers. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial of service.

Versions prior to TCPreen 1.4.4 are vulnerable.
