CVE-2018-25344 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.6/10 on the CVSS scale. 10-Strike Network Inventory Explorer 8.54 contains a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the registration key input field that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering a structured exception handler overwrite. Attackers can craft a malicious registration key string with 4188 bytes of padding followed by SEH chain values and shellcode, then paste it into the registration dialog to achieve code execution with application privileges.. EPSS estimates a 0.16% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
