Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionNVD
The remote management interface of cgminer 4.10.0 and bfgminer 5.5.0 allows an authenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to a stack-based buffer overflow in the addpool, failover-only, poolquota, and save command handlers.
AnalysisAI
The remote management interface of cgminer 4.10.0 and bfgminer 5.5.0 allows an authenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to a stack-based buffer overflow in the addpool,. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.8), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787), which allows attackers to write data beyond allocated buffer boundaries leading to code execution or crashes. The remote management interface of cgminer 4.10.0 and bfgminer 5.5.0 allows an authenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to a stack-based buffer overflow in the addpool, failover-only, poolquota, and save command handlers. Affected products include: Cgminer Project Cgminer, Bfgminer.
RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Validate write boundaries, use memory-safe languages, enable compiler protections (ASLR, stack canaries).
