Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in 10-Strike Network Inventory Explorer 8.65. It has been classified as critical. This affects an unknown code block of the component Structured Exception Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a stack-based overflow vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-121. A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function). This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

10-Strike Network Inventory Explorer 8.65 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in exception handling that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Attackers can craft a malicious file with 209 bytes of padding and a specially constructed Structured Exception Handler to trigger code execution.

The weakness was disclosed by Sectechs as 49134. The advisory is shared at exploit-db.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2020-36961 since 01/26/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. An attack has to be approached locally. Technical details are unknown but a public exploit is available.
