Heap-based buffer overflow in the Siemens WinCC Runtime Advanced Loader, as used in SIMATIC WinCC flexible Runtime and SIMATIC WinCC (TIA Portal) Runtime Advanced, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet to TCP port 2308.
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.
