Application shutdown via crafted /foff shellcode
Published Jan 16, 2024 · Updated Jun 2, 2025
Uncontrolled resource consumption in Sandsprite scdbg 1.0 allows local users to shut down the application via crafted shellcode. The published advisory identifies /foff as the triggering parameter but does not disclose which resource or operation becomes uncontrolled. Local execution of scdbg with the payload is required; the resulting shutdown can let malware evade shellcode analysis.
