Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • A structured source references public exploit or proof-of-concept material.
  • EPSS is 0.18% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Restrict local access and enforce least privilege on affected hosts.
  • Increase monitoring for the attack path and post-exploitation behaviour described in the report.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs Anyburn AnyBurn and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Recheck the vendor advisory before scheduling a change because no verified fixed version is currently retained.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: As exposure requiresRemediation target: Within 365 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

EUVD-2018-21690

No EUVD known-exploited evidence

AnyBurn 4.3 contains a local buffer overflow vulnerability that allows local attackers to crash the application by supplying an excessively long string in the image file name field. Attackers can paste a 10000-byte payload into the 'Image file name' parameter during the 'Copy disk to Image' operation to trigger a denial of service condition.

01

What, why and how

AnyBurn 4.3 contains a local buffer overflow vulnerability that allows local attackers to crash the application by supplying an excessively long string in the image file name field. Attackers can paste a 10000-byte payload into the 'Image file name' parameter during the 'Copy disk to Image' operation to trigger a denial of service condition.

What

AnyBurn 4.3 contains a local buffer overflow vulnerability that allows local attackers to crash the application by supplying an excessively long string in the image file name field. Attackers can paste a 10000-byte payload into the 'Image file name' parameter during the 'Copy disk to Image' operation to trigger a denial of service condition.

Why

A bounds error lets data be written beyond the intended memory region, potentially corrupting control data.

How

An attacker operating through local access may attempt exploitation without authentication or user interaction. If successful, the issue may disrupt the affected service.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
Reference recorded

A structured CVE source labels at least one public reference as exploit material. BlackTree has not independently validated that it is safe, reliable or weaponised.
