Buffer Overflow

memory HIGH

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.

How It Works

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. This overwrites whatever data or code exists there, corrupting program state and potentially giving attackers control over execution flow.

Stack-based overflows are the most common variant. When a function allocates a fixed-size buffer on the stack and then copies user-controlled input without proper bounds checking, attackers can overflow past the buffer to overwrite the function's return address. When the function completes, instead of returning to legitimate code, execution jumps to attacker-specified memory containing malicious shellcode. Heap-based overflows work differently—they corrupt heap metadata like chunk size fields or free list pointers, leading to arbitrary memory writes when the allocator processes the corrupted structures.

Modern exploitation bypasses defensive mechanisms through techniques like Return-Oriented Programming (ROP), which chains together existing code snippets to avoid non-executable memory protections. Attackers may also use heap spraying to reliably position shellcode at predictable addresses, defeating address randomization.

Impact

  • Remote code execution — attacker gains ability to run arbitrary commands with the privileges of the vulnerable process
  • Privilege escalation — exploiting kernel or setuid program overflows to gain root/SYSTEM access
  • Denial of service — crashes and memory corruption that render systems unusable
  • Information disclosure — reading sensitive data from adjacent memory regions that should be inaccessible
  • Authentication bypass — overwriting security-critical variables like permission flags or user IDs

Real-World Examples

Fortinet FortiOS suffered a critical buffer overflow (CVE-2025-32756) that allowed unauthenticated remote attackers to execute code as root on firewalls and VPN gateways. Attackers actively exploited this to compromise enterprise network perimeters before patches were available.

The Slammer worm from 2003 exploited a stack overflow in Microsoft SQL Server, spreading to 75,000 hosts in ten minutes by sending a single malformed UDP packet that overwrote the return address with shellcode. No authentication was required.

OpenSSH historically contained a heap overflow in challenge-response authentication that allowed pre-authentication remote root compromise on Unix systems, demonstrating how memory corruption in privileged network services creates maximum impact scenarios.

Mitigation

  • Memory-safe languages — Rust, Go, and modern managed languages prevent buffer overflows by design through automatic bounds checking
  • Stack canaries — random values placed before return addresses that detect corruption before control transfer
  • Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) — randomizes memory locations making exploitation less reliable
  • Data Execution Prevention (DEP/NX) — marks memory regions as non-executable, preventing direct shellcode execution
  • Bounds checking — validate input sizes before copying, use safe functions like strncpy instead of strcpy
  • Fuzzing and static analysis — automated testing to discover overflows before deployment

Denial of service in the tftp-hpa in.tftpd remap engine allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to crash the TFTP daemon with a single crafted request: when an inverse remap rule also aborts with a non-empty custom error message, invalid regex match offsets are passed into genmatchstring(), producing out-of-bounds reads and writes. The flaw affects tftp-hpa as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 through 10 and Red Hat Hardened Images, but is only reachable when the daemon is launched with a remap (map-file) configuration containing such a rule, so default installations with no remap file do not exercise the vulnerable code path. At time of analysis there was no public exploit identified and no CISA KEV listing; CVSS rates the issue 7.5 with availability-only impact.

A heap buffer overflow in the IBM MQ client (CWE-787) can be triggered when the client processes crafted messages delivered by a malicious or compromised queue manager, or by an attacker positioned to man-in-the-middle the client-to-manager channel. Successful exploitation can crash the client for a denial-of-service condition or, more seriously, allow arbitrary code execution in the context of the client process. IBM has released a vendor fix via support bulletin 7284943; there is no public exploit code or CISA KEV entry identified at time of analysis, and the elevated complexity (the attacker must control the server side of the connection) keeps real-world risk below its 8.1 CVSS base score for most deployments.

No public exploit code has been identified and there is no confirmed active exploitation (CISA KEV does not list this CVE), and EPSS is low at 0.14 percent (4th percentile), so the practical near-term risk is driven by the product's position on the security perimeter rather than by observed attack activity.

Attack requires the client to connect to a malicious RDP server — UI:P (passive user interaction: the user connects to the server). PR:N. No privileges. AV:N because the malicious server is remote. Exploitation conditions: attacker must control/operate the RDP server the client connects to; requires the RDPDR (device redirection) virtual channel to be enabled/active — in FreeRDP, rdpdr is used for drive/printer/port redirection and is typically negotiated when the client has redirection enabled. Also the dump/log path (rdpdr_dump_packet is a debug dump function) — so triggering the crash likely requires the rdpdr debug logging/dump enabled? Hmm. The function rdpdr_dump_packet is a dumping function, likely compiled when WITH_DEBUG_RDPDR or verbose logging is enabled. Actually in FreeRDP, rdpdr_dump_packet exists in rdpdr_main.c guarded by... let's be careful.

Sandbox escape in Mozilla Firefox's Graphics component, rooted in an invalid-pointer memory-safety flaw (CWE-119), allows attacker-controlled content loaded by a victim to cross the browser's process-sandbox boundary and reach the privileges of the parent/broker process. Default configurations of Firefox before 156 and Firefox ESR before 140.16 / 153.3 are affected; the vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H, 9.6) indicates no authentication or privileges are required, but the victim must load attacker-controlled content (UI:R). No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low (0.16%, 5th percentile); the real-world bar is further raised because a sandbox escape of this class generally has to be chained with a separate content-process memory-corruption primitive to be exploited end-to-end.

It is a genuine but not top-tier priority: the impact is high if chained, but the barrier of local code execution limits reach.

An out-of-bounds read in Apple's operating system kernel lets a local user or a malicious/compromised app running on an affected device disclose kernel memory or crash the system, carrying a vendor CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H). The flaw affects iOS and iPadOS before 26.7/27, macOS Sequoia before 15.8, macOS Tahoe before 26.7, macOS Golden Gate before 27, and tvOS, visionOS and watchOS before 27; exploitation requires local code execution (AV:L, PR:L), there is no remote or network-triggerable path and no user-interaction requirement.

An out-of-bounds write in Apple's 3D model handling code causes memory corruption on unpatched iPhones, iPads, Macs, Apple TVs, Apple Vision Pro and Apple Watches when a maliciously crafted 3D model file is processed by the device. The flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.4 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) and was addressed by Apple with improved bounds checking in iOS/iPadOS 26.7 and 27, macOS Sequoia 15.8, macOS Tahoe 26.7 and macOS Golden Gate 27, plus tvOS 27, visionOS 27 and watchOS 27; no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and EPSS places the likelihood of exploitation in the near term at only 0.17% (7th percentile). Exploitation is not remote-service based: the attacker must first deliver the crafted model to the victim's device and have it parsed, so it is best treated as a genuine but not urgent patching priority rather than an imminent threat.

Opening a maliciously crafted file on an unpatched Apple device can crash the component that parses it, because a buffer overflow in Apple's size-validation logic was only corrected in the latest OS releases. Affected platforms are iOS/iPadOS before 26.7 (and before 27), macOS Sequoia before 15.8, macOS Tahoe before 26.7, macOS Golden Gate before 27, tvOS before 27, and visionOS before 27; exploitation is local and requires the victim to actively open the attacker-supplied file, with no remote or network trigger available. The demonstrated outcome per Apple's advisory is unexpected process termination (denial of service) rather than code execution or data disclosure, and no public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation was identified at time of analysis, with EPSS at 0.22% (13th percentile).

Kernel memory corruption in Apple macOS versions prior to Golden Gate 27 allows a local attacker who can already execute code on the device to trigger an out-of-bounds buffer write, causing unexpected system termination or corruption of kernel memory. Apple addressed the flaw through improved size validation in macOS Golden Gate 27, and a vendor patch is available; no public exploit code has been identified and EPSS remains very low at 0.14% (4th percentile), suggesting limited near-term exploitation activity. Note that the vendor-supplied CVSS of 9.8 (AV:N/PR:N) conflicts with the advisory text, which explicitly describes a local attacker; the authoritative assessed vector is CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H, reflecting that the attacker must already be able to execute code on the target system and that exploitation cannot be launched remotely without a prior foothold.

Kernel memory corruption in Apple's operating systems (iOS/iPadOS 26.6.1, macOS Sequoia 15.8, macOS Tahoe 26.6.2, tvOS, visionOS and watchOS 27 and earlier) lets an application already running on the device crash the system or corrupt kernel memory, per Apple's advisory the root cause was addressed through improved memory handling. The independent assessment rates this as a local, app-gated issue (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H) rather than the vendor's network-reachable AV:N/PR:N vector of 7.5, meaning exploitation requires an attacker to first get code executing as an app on the target device; no elevated privileges or user interaction beyond launching the app are needed once that foothold exists. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is low at 0.18% (7th percentile), and no CISA KEV listing applies; the practical outcome in most cases is a device crash or denial of service, with kernel memory corruption that would require additional work to turn into privilege escalation.

On unpatched Apple platforms, opening a maliciously crafted video file can cause the affected app to terminate unexpectedly or leave process memory corrupted, because the underlying media parsing code fails to handle memory correctly. Affected are iOS/iPadOS before 26.6 or 26.7, macOS Sequoia before 15.8, macOS Tahoe before 26.6 or 26.7, tvOS before 26.6, and watchOS before 26.6; the vector is local (AV:L) with user interaction required (UI:R) and no authentication (PR:N), meaning an attacker must deliver the file and convince the user to open or preview it. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low (0.18%, 7th percentile), but the flaw is serious: the description substantiates only app crashes and in-process memory corruption, with no confirmed confidentiality disclosure or code-execution primitive, which is narrower than the vendor's 7.8 high-severity rating implies.

Memory corruption during file parsing on Apple iOS/iPadOS (before version 27) and macOS (before Golden Gate 27) can cause the handling application to terminate unexpectedly when a user opens a maliciously crafted file; the flaw was addressed by strengthening input validation. Because the attack vector is local (the file must be delivered to and opened on the device) and user interaction is required, exploitation is not remote or unattended, and no special privileges are needed (PR:N, unauthenticated). The vendor rates this 7.8 High, but the independently assessed vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) reflects availability-only impact, and combined with a very low EPSS of 0.19% (8th percentile) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, real-world risk is LOW-to-MODERATE rather than critical.
