Application crash via oversized Share Name
Published Mar 21, 2026 · Updated Mar 21, 2026
Buffer overflow in the Share Name field in Infiltration Systems NetAware 1.20 allows local users to crash the application. The Manage Shares interface accepts a pasted 1,000-byte value and writes it beyond the Share Name buffer's intended bounds. Access to the local NetAware interface is required; successful exploitation interrupts monitoring by terminating the application without reported data disclosure or modification.
