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. CVE summarizes:
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the is_command function in proxy.c in Apple Darwin Streaming Proxy, when using Darwin Streaming Server before 5.5.5, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) cmd or (2) server value in an RTSP request.
