Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
KiTTY versions 0.76.1.13 and before
Description
The issue is a stack-based buffer overflow that occurs via the hostname due to insufficient bounds checking and input sanitization. This allows an attacker to overwrite adjacent memory, leading to arbitrary code execution.
Recommendations
For KiTTY versions 0.76.1.13 and before, consider disabling the use of hostnames until a patch is available to prevent exploitation of the stack-based buffer overflow.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
