CVE-2024-25253Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Application crash via oversized proxy Host value

Published Nov 11, 2024 · Updated Nov 19, 2024

Buffer overflow in IObit Driver Booster 10.6 allows remote attackers to crash the application through an oversized proxy Host value. The Customize proxy module copies the Host value into a fixed-size buffer without enforcing the destination capacity. Exploitation requires control of the proxy Host input, and the published assessment limits the consequence to loss of availability.
