A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in Delta Electronics Delta Industrial Automation DOPSoft version 2 when parsing the wKPFStringLen field of a DPS file. An anonymous attacker can exploit this vulnerability by enticing a user to open a specially crafted DPS file to achieve code execution.
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.
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.
