Exploitability

CWE
CWE Icon
KEV
KEV Icon
CWE ID Description
CWE-119 The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
CWE-416 The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
CWE-125 The product reads data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
CWE-787 The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
