A CWE-119: Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability exists that could cause remote code execution when a command which exploits this vulnerability is utilized. Affected Products: CanBRASS (Versions prior to V7.5.1)

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A CWE-119 buffer overflow vulnerability exists in CanBRASS versions prior to V7.5.1 that allows remote code execution when a specially crafted command exploiting the memory buffer overflow is sent to the affected application.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check CanBRASS version via Windows Programs and Features
    Open Control Panel > Programs and Features, locate 'CanBRASS' or 'Schneider Electric CanBRASS' in the list, and note the version number shown in the Version column
    Affected if Version displayed is lower than 7.5.1 (for example, 7.5.0, 7.4.x, or earlier)
  2. Check CanBRASS executable file properties
    Locate the CanBRASS installation directory (commonly in Program Files or Program Files (x86)), right-click on the main executable file (typically CanBRASS.exe), select Properties, and view the Details tab for the Product Version
    Affected if Product Version shown is less than 7.5.1
  3. Check CanBRASS version from within the application
    Launch CanBRASS, click the Help menu, and select About or About CanBRASS to display the version information dialog
    Affected if Version shown in the About dialog is lower than 7.5.1

User is affected if the installed CanBRASS version is any version prior to 7.5.1
