Status: AnalyzedMedium (6.8)—

Softros LAN Messenger 9.2 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows local attackers to crash the application by supplying an excessively long string to the custom log files location field. Attackers can input a buffer of 2000 characters in the Log Files Location custom path parameter to trigger a crash when the OK button is clicked.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
