Acon Multiple Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

Acon is prone to multiple local buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.

Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code with superuser privileges. Successful exploits will completely compromise affected computers.
