FKIE_CVE-2023-28505

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2023-03-29 21:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 05:47
Severity
8.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
8.1 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
Summary
Rocket Software UniData versions prior to 8.2.4 build 3003 and UniVerse versions prior to 11.3.5 build 1001 or 12.2.1 build 2002 suffer from a buffer overflow in an API function, where a string is copied into a caller-provided buffer without checking the length. This requires a valid login to exploit.
