CVE-ID: CVE-2022-33881

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when parsing PRT files. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may lead to remote code execution.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
