The URL bar contains a buffer overflow vulnerability with a buffer length of 1600 bytes. The application fails to correctly process certain bytes such as 0x9c which becomes 0x9cc2. After reviewing the source code, the below function modifies the shellcode: Line 902: int TtaWCToMBstring (wchar_t src, unsigned char **dest). The max value which can be used is 0x1fffff. To bypass the 800 character limit on the link, click the link then select 'Links' >> 'Create or change link...' and click 'Confirm'. Alternatively, copy the payload into the URL bar.
Mitigation:
Ensure that the application is up to date and all security patches are applied.
