Remote code execution via Double.Parse stack overflow
Published May 14, 2024 · Updated May 3, 2025
Stack buffer overflow in Microsoft .NET 7.0 and 8.0 allows remote attackers to execute code through a crafted value parsed as a double. The Double.Parse routine overruns a stack buffer while converting attacker-controlled numeric text. Exploitation requires user interaction and reaches code running under the affected application, including vulnerable runtimes bundled with Visual Studio or PowerShell.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
