X-NetStat Pro version 5.63 contains a local buffer overflow vulnerability that enables local attackers to execute arbitrary code. The vulnerability allows attackers to overwrite the EIP register through a 264-byte buffer overflow. Attackers can inject shellcode into memory and utilize an egg hunter technique to locate and execute their payload. The vulnerability is triggered when the application processes malicious input through HTTP Client or Rules functionality. This represents a significant security risk for systems running the affected version of X-NetStat Pro.
