Heap-based buffer overflow in the K7FWFilt.sys kernel mode driver (aka K7Firewall Packet Driver) before 14.0.1.16, as used in multiple K7 Computing products, allows local users to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges via a crafted parameter in a DeviceIoControl API call.
AnalysisAI
Heap-based buffer overflow in the K7FWFilt.sys kernel mode driver (aka K7Firewall Packet Driver) before 14.0.1.16, as used in multiple K7 Computing products, allows local users to execute arbitrary. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.2), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Buffer Overflow (CWE-119), which allows attackers to corrupt memory to execute arbitrary code or crash the application. Heap-based buffer overflow in the K7FWFilt.sys kernel mode driver (aka K7Firewall Packet Driver) before 14.0.1.16, as used in multiple K7 Computing products, allows local users to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges via a crafted parameter in a DeviceIoControl API call. Affected products include: K7Computing K7Firewall Packet Driver. Version information: before 14.0.1.16.
RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Use memory-safe languages or bounds-checking. Enable ASLR, DEP/NX, stack canaries. Use safe string functions.
