Description
Base64 Decoder 1.1.2 contains a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering a structured exception handler (SEH) overwrite. Attackers can craft a malicious input file that overflows a buffer, overwrites the SEH chain with a POP-POP-RET gadget address, and uses an egghunter payload to locate and execute shellcode for code execution.
