Buffer overflow in Zephyr USB DFU DNLOAD. Zephyr versions >= v2.5.0 contain Heap-based Buffer Overflow (CWE-122). For more information, see https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/security/advisories/GHSA-c3gr-hgvr-f363
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.
