What is CVE-2019-7232?

CVE-2019-7232 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in n/a, published on 24 Jun 2019. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

The ABB IDAL HTTP server is vulnerable to a buffer overflow when a long Host header is sent in a web request. The Host header value overflows a buffer and overwrites a Structured Exception Handler (SEH) address. An unauthenticated attacker can submit a Host header value of 2047 bytes or more to overflow the buffer and overwrite the SEH address, which can then be leveraged to execute attacker-controlled code on the server.
