An issue was discovered in WinAPRS 2.9.0. A buffer overflow in the VHF KISS TNC component allows a remote attacker to achieve remote code execution via malicious AX.25 packets over the air. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer
The product copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer, leading to a buffer overflow.
