VULHUB ™

It is reported that NapShare is susceptible to a remote buffer overflow vulnerability. This is due to a failure of the application to properly bounds check user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-size memory buffer. Attackers running malicious Gnutella servers are reportedly able to exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code in the context of the vulnerable application. Version 1.2 of NapShare is reported susceptible. Other versions may also be affected.
