CWE-119Published: March 19, 2013· Updated: Jun 16, 2026
10.0
CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Stack-based buffer overflow in llogincircuit.cc in latd 1.25 through 1.30 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long string in the llogin version.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2013-0251 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-119): Buffer overflow vulnerabilities can lead to arbitrary code execution or denial of service by corrupting adjacent memory.
