Exploitability

CWE

KEV

CWE ID	Description
CWE-190	The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.

Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is an integer overflow in multiple functions of mem_protect.c that can cause an out of bounds write. This means the program may write data outside the intended memory area, potentially corrupting memory or altering program behavior.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can lead to local escalation of privilege, allowing an attacker with local access to gain higher privileges without needing additional execution privileges or user interaction.
