Vulnerability Details
c-cpp-example/src/advanced_examples/structured_input_checks_test.cppExplanation:
The vulnerability arises from the use of
ConsumeRemainingBytesAsString()which consumes all remaining bytes from the input data without any bounds checking. If the input data exceeds the expected size for thecfield inInputStruct, it can lead to a buffer overflow when this string is used later in theExploreStructuredInputChecksfunction. This is particularly dangerous ifExploreStructuredInputChecksdoes not properly validate the length of the string before using it.MANDATORY TAINT PATH: (SOURCE:
data, PROPAGATION:fdp.ConsumeRemainingBytesAsString(), SANITIZATION: None, SINK:ExploreStructuredInputChecks(inputStruct))Please review and address the issue accordingly.
