AnalysisAI

In Eclipse ThreadX NetX Duo before 6.4.0, if an attacker can control parameters of __portable_aligned_alloc() could cause an integer wrap-around and an allocation smaller than expected. Rated critical severity (CVSS 9.8), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. This Buffer Copy without Size Check vulnerability could allow attackers to overflow a buffer to corrupt adjacent memory.

RemediationAI

A vendor patch is available. Apply the latest security update as soon as possible. Always validate buffer sizes before copy operations. Use bounded functions (strncpy, snprintf). Enable compiler protections.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This vulnerability is classified as Buffer Copy without Size Check (CWE-120), which allows attackers to overflow a buffer to corrupt adjacent memory. In Eclipse ThreadX NetX Duo before 6.4.0, if an attacker can control parameters of __portable_aligned_alloc() could cause an integer wrap-around and an allocation smaller than expected. This could cause subsequent heap buffer overflows. Affected products include: Eclipse Threadx Netx Duo. Version information: before 6.4.0.

Attack Technique

A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
