CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Stack-based buffer overflow in ermapper_u.dll in Intergraph ERDAS ER Viewer before 13.0.1.1301 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted ERS file.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2013-3483 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.
