CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in an unspecified DLL file in Advantech WebAccess before 8.0_20150816 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted file that triggers long string arguments to functions.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2014-9202 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
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.
