| VULNERABILITY DETAILS |
The specific flaw exists within the ftAgent.exe service, which listens by default on TCP port 8045. When handling messages with opcode 50 (0x32) and subcode 04, the process performs arithmetic on an unvalidated user-supplied value used to determine the size of a new heap buffer, allowing a potential integer wrap. This user supplied value is also used to determine how many times a loop will parse the data into the buffer. Combined, the vulnerable code will allow for the heap to be corrupted. This vulnerability can be leveraged to execute code under the context of the SYSTEM user. |
