Service interruption via unchecked relay message size
Published Jun 24, 2026 · Updated Jun 24, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in GeoVision GV-VMS 20.0.2 allows attackers to interrupt service through a malicious GV-Cloud relay response. GvRelayProxy.dll trusts the server-supplied message size and passes the unchecked remainder to recv_data for a 4,072-byte stack buffer. Exploitation requires impersonating relay.vsm.mygvcloud.com through a man-in-the-middle position or DNS tampering; an oversized response corrupts the stack, and a matching frame-size overwrite triggers a stack-cookie failure when the function returns.
