WikiReader Local Buffer-Overflow Vulnerability
WikiReader is prone to a local buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to adequately bounds-check user-supplied input data to an insufficiently sized buffer. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application; failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to prevent buffer overflows.
