Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions HCL Client Application Access version 9
Description A vulnerability in the input parameter handling could potentially be exploited by an authenticated attacker, resulting in a stack buffer overflow.

Recommendations For HCL Client Application Access version 9, consider restricting access to the input parameter handling functionality until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limit the privileges of the currently logged in user to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
