CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedA stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the diagnostic execution utility of Brocade Fabric OS versions prior to 10.0.1 allows authenticated users with administrative access to exploit the lack of boundary checks on user-supplied input. By providing a specially crafted command string, an attacker can cause a memory overwrite, leading to a denial of service through process crashes. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize patching to mitigate potential disruptions in service.

Original NVD Description
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the diagnostic execution utility of Brocade Fabric OS versions before 10.0.1. When processing command arguments for diagnostic operations, the utility tokenizes user-supplied input into an internal argument array without enforcing boundary checks on the maximum array capacity. An authenticated user with administrative access can exploit this vulnerability by supplying a crafted diagnostic command string containing an excessive number of tokenized arguments. This leads to a memory overwrite resulting in a denial of service (process crash).
