Submit #654074: Davide Faconti BehaviorTree 4.7.0 / master commit 8d47d39 Stack-based Buffer Overflowinfo

TitleDavide Faconti BehaviorTree 4.7.0 / master commit 8d47d39 Stack-based Buffer Overflow
DescriptionBehaviorTree.CPP version 4.7.0 (master commit 8d47d39) contains a stack-buffer-overflow vulnerability in the script parser. The vulnerable function ParseScript() (in src/script_parser.cpp) allocates a fixed-size buffer on the stack. The buffer is used to store diagnostic messages produced by ErrorReport. However, these messages can exceed 2048 bytes in length, which causes writes beyond the bounds of error_msgs_buffer. This results in a stack-buffer-overflow, confirmed by AddressSanitizer.
