A vulnerability was found in MicroWord eScan Antivirus 7.0.32 on Linux. It has been classified as critical. This affects the function sprintf of the component USB Password Handler. The manipulation leads to buffer overflow. An attack has to be approached locally. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
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.
