Description

A flaw was found in Capstone, a disassembly framework. A local attacker could exploit a heap buffer overflow vulnerability by providing a specially crafted skipdata callback. This flaw occurs because the skipdata length is not properly bounds-checked, which may allow an attacker to write beyond allocated memory, potentially leading to a denial of service (DoS) or arbitrary code execution.

Statement

This vulnerability is rated Moderate because a heap buffer overflow in the Capstone disassembly framework can be exploited by a local attacker providing a specially crafted skipdata callback, potentially leading to denial of service or arbitrary code execution.
