CVE-2024-31203
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA “CWE-121: Stack-based Buffer Overflow” in the wd210std.dll dynamic library packaged with the ThermoscanIP installer allows a local attacker to possibly trigger a Denial-of-Service (DoS) condition on the target component.
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 confidenceA stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121) exists in the wd210std.dll dynamic library bundled with the ThermoscanIP installer. A local attacker with access to the target system can exploit this vulnerability to trigger a denial-of-service condition, potentially causing the affected component to crash or become unstable.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm ThermoscanIP installationCheck system for Proges Thermoscan IP software by looking in Program Files, Program Files (x86), or checking the Windows Registry under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall for entries containing 'Thermoscan'Affected if The software is installed and version equals 20211103
-
Identify installation directoryLocate the main ThermoscanIP installation folder, typically found in C:\Program Files\Proges\ThermoscanIP or C:\Program Files (x86)\Proges\ThermoscanIPAffected if The software is installed in this specific directory structure
-
Verify vulnerable DLL existsIn the installation directory, confirm the presence of wd210std.dll fileAffected if The file wd210std.dll exists in the ThermoscanIP installation folder
-
Confirm affected versionRight-click wd210std.dll, select Properties, then view the Details tab to check the File Version and Product Version fieldsAffected if The DLL file version corresponds to the ThermoscanIP 20211103 release
A system is affected if Proges Thermoscan IP version 20211103 is installed and the vulnerable wd210std.dll dynamic library is present in the installation directory.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataApply any available vendor patches or updates for ThermoscanIP. If no patch exists, consider isolating the affected system, restricting local access to privileged users only, and contacting the vendor for remediation guidance.
