Technical details

A stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121) exists in QNAP File Station 5. The vulnerability can be triggered by a remote attacker, though the CVSS vector suggests some level of user interaction (UI:P) may be required. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to modify memory contents or crash application processes, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or a denial of service. The issue is resolved in File Station 5 version 5.5.6.5243 and later.
