Official Description
AIDA64 Extreme 5.99.4900 contains a structured exception handler buffer overflow vulnerability in the logging functionality that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying a malicious CSV log file path. Attackers can inject shellcode through the Hardware Monitoring logging preferences to overflow the buffer and trigger code execution when the application processes the log file path.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2019-25629 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 7.8.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-787): Out-of-bounds write vulnerabilities can lead to data corruption, crashes, or arbitrary code execution.
