Last modified

CVE-2016-5080 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Integer overflow in the rtxMemHeapAlloc function in asn1rt_a.lib in Objective Systems ASN1C for C/C++ before 7.0.2 allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow), on a system running an application compiled by ASN1C, via crafted ASN.1 data.. EPSS estimates a 10.06% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
