The affected product is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow, which may allow an attacker to manipulate memory with controlled values and remotely execute code on the OPC UA Tunneller (versions prior to 6.3.0.8233).
A heap overflow condition is a buffer overflow, where the buffer that can be overwritten is allocated in the heap portion of memory, generally meaning that the buffer was allocated using a routine such as malloc().
The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
