Description

Stack-based buffer overflow in the file parsing function in Tonec Internet Download Manager, possibly 5.14 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted AppleDouble file containing a long string. NOTE: this is probably a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-2210.

Public exploits

Exploit or proof-of-concept code for this vulnerability is publicly available, which lowers the bar for attackers. Treat it as a reason to patch sooner.

Third-party code, not reviewed by us. Public PoCs are sometimes fake or contain malware. Read the code first and run it only in an isolated lab, against systems you are authorised to test.
