An exploitable stack based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the ipNameAdd functionality of Iceni Argus Version 6.6.04 (Sep 7 2012) NK - Linux x64 and Version 6.6.04 (Nov 14 2014) NK - Windows x64. A specially crafted pdf file can cause a buffer overflow resulting in arbitrary code execution. An attacker can send/provide malicious pdf file to trigger this 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.
