Arbitrary code execution via malformed V9C file
Published May 30, 2024 · Updated Jul 24, 2025
Type confusion in Fuji Electric MONITOUCH V-SFT before 6.2.3.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted V9C file. The V9C parser fails to validate user-supplied data before writing past the end of an allocated data structure. Exploitation requires the target to open a malicious file or visit a malicious page, after which code runs in the context of the current process.
