An out of bounds read vulnerability exists in the malware scan functionality of ESTsoft Alyac 2.5.7.7. A specially-crafted PE file can trigger this vulnerability to cause denial of service and termination of malware scan. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability.
The product performs pointer arithmetic on a valid pointer, but it uses an offset that can point outside of the intended range of valid memory locations for the resulting pointer.
https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/823.html →Open in CWE collection →This attack pattern involves an adversary manipulating a pointer within a target application resulting in the application accessing an unintended memory location. This can result in the crashing of the application or, for certain pointer values, access to data that would not normally be possible or the execution of arbitrary code. Since pointers are simply integer variables, Integer Attacks may often be used in Pointer Attacks.
