CloudMe Sync CVE-2018-6892

CloudMe Sync before version 1.11.0 is affected by CVE-2018-6892[1]. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to exploit the “CloudMe Sync” client application, which listens on port 8888[1]. By sending a malicious payload, the attacker can trigger a buffer overflow vulnerability in the application[1].

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows the attacker to gain control over the program’s execution flow, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution[1]. This implies that an attacker could execute malicious code on an affected system by exploiting this vulnerability.

CloudMe Sync versions prior to 1.11.0 are vulnerable to this issue, so it is crucial for users of CloudMe Sync to update to the latest version to mitigate the risk associated with this vulnerability.
