Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionNVD
An exploitable uninitialized variable vulnerability exists in the RTF-parsing functionality of Atlantis Word Processor 3.2.6 version. A specially crafted RTF file can leverage an uninitialized stack address, resulting in an out-of-bounds write, which in turn could lead to code execution.
AnalysisAI
An exploitable uninitialized variable vulnerability exists in the RTF-parsing functionality of Atlantis Word Processor 3.2.6 version. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.8), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Use of Uninitialized Resource (CWE-908), which allows attackers to access uninitialized memory causing crashes or information disclosure. An exploitable uninitialized variable vulnerability exists in the RTF-parsing functionality of Atlantis Word Processor 3.2.6 version. A specially crafted RTF file can leverage an uninitialized stack address, resulting in an out-of-bounds write, which in turn could lead to code execution. Affected products include: Atlantiswordprocessor Atlantis Word Processor.
RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Initialize all variables, use compiler warnings for uninitialized access, use memory-safe languages.
