Discussion
BaoFeng Storm 'sparser.dll' ActiveX Control Multiple Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities
BaoFeng Storm ActiveX control is prone to multiple buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data.
Successfully exploiting these issues allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application using the ActiveX control (typically Internet Explorer). Failed exploit attempts likely result in denial-of-service conditions.
BaoFeng Storm 2.8 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
