RealTerm: Serial Terminal 2.0.0.70 – ‘Echo Port’ Buffer Overflow – (SEH)
RealTerm: Serial Terminal 2.0.0.70 is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in the 'Echo Port' tab. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by running a python script to create a new file 'carbonara.txt' containing malicious code. The attacker then copies the content of the new file to clipboard, opens realterm.exe, goes to 'Echo Port' tab, pastes the clipboard in 'Port' field, clicks on button -> Change, checks 'Echo On' or Box! and triggers the buffer overflow.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to the latest version of RealTerm: Serial Terminal 2.0.0.70
