CVE-2023-34364

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Progress DataDirect Connect for ODBC versions prior to 08.02.2770 for Oracle

Description A buffer overflow issue was discovered, allowing an attacker to execute code of their choice on an affected host. This occurs when an overly large value for certain options of a connection string overruns the buffer allocated to process the string value. By copying carefully selected data that will be executed as code, an attacker can exploit this issue.

Recommendations For versions prior to 08.02.2770, update to version 08.02.2770 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of large values for certain options in the connection string to minimize the risk of exploitation.
