High CVSS 8.4

Overview

NetOp (now part of Impero Software) Remote Control Client v9.5 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow when processing .dws configuration files. If a .dws file contains a string longer than 520 bytes, the application fails to perform proper bounds checking, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code when the file is opened.

Risk analysis

This vulnerability is rated 🟠 HIGH.

  • CVSS: 8.4 (HIGH)
  • Detected tags: buffer, rce (tag impact: VERY HIGH)

Recommended actions:

  • Patch/upgrade immediately (remote code execution).
  • Reduce exposure (WAF/segmentation), minimize attack surface.
