2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2011-5008)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Integer overflow in the GatewayService component in 3S CoDeSys 3.4 SP4 Patch 2. A remote attacker can use a large size value in the packet header to trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
