CVE-2020-13580Network attack vector

Code execution via unchecked record length

Published Feb 4, 2021 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Out-of-bounds write in SoftMaker PlanMaker 2021 Revision 1014 allows attackers to execute code through a crafted spreadsheet document. The record 0x8010 parser trusts a file-supplied string length and, without bounds checking, uses it to place a 16-bit null outside its stack buffer. Execution requires a user to open the malicious document, and resulting code runs with the PlanMaker application's privileges.
