A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in NI System Configuration that could result in information disclosure and/or arbitrary code execution. Successful exploitation requires that an attacker can provide a specially crafted response. This affects NI System Configuration 2023 Q3 and all previous versions.
A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function).
The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
