Heap-based buffer overflow in the Wireless LAN AutoConfig Service (aka Wlansvc) in Microsoft Windows Vista Gold, SP1, and SP2 and Server 2008 Gold and SP2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed wireless frame, aka "Wireless Frame Parsing Remote Code Execution Vulnerability."
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
