CVE-2005-1187
Heap-based buffer overflow in WinHex 12.05 SR-14, and possibly other versions, may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long file name argument.
MEDIUM 5.1EPSS 2.04%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.04%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
Heap-based buffer overflow in WinHex 12.05 SR-14, and possibly other versions, may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long file name argument. NOTE: since this overflow is in the command line of an unprivileged program, it is highly likely that this is not a vulnerability.
