Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-12-20 19:39

In AzeoTech DAQFactory release 20.7 (Build 2555), a Use After Free vulnerability can be exploited to cause memory corruption while parsing specially crafted .ctl files. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.The specific flaw exists within the parsing of CTL files. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. AzeoTech DAQFactory is a data acquisition and monitoring software developed by AzeoTech, a US-based company, commonly used in industrial automation.
