Advisory Published
Vulnetix · Advisory published August 25, 2022
Multiple buffer overflows were discovered in Kicad, a suite of programs for the creation of printed circuit boards, which could result in the execution of arbitrary code if malformed Gerber/Excellon files, as follows. A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Gerber Viewer gerber and excellon ReadXYCoord coordinate parsing functionality of KiCad EDA 6.0.1 and master commit de006fc010. A specially-crafted gerber or excellon file can lead to code execution. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. (CVE-2022-23803) A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Gerber Viewer gerber and excellon ReadIJCoord coordinate parsing functionality of KiCad EDA 6.0.1 and master commit de006fc010. A specially-crafted gerber or excellon file can lead to code execution. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. (CVE-2022-23804) A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Gerber Viewer gerber and excellon GCodeNumber parsing functionality of KiCad EDA 6.0.1 and master commit de006fc010. A specially-crafted gerber or excellon file can lead to code execution. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. (CVE-2022-23946) A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Gerber Viewer gerber and excellon DCodeNumber parsing functionality of KiCad EDA 6.0.1 and master commit de006fc010. A specially-crafted gerber or excellon file can lead to code execution. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. (CVE-2022-23947)
