Vulnerabilities checklist:

  • CVE-2018-17895 out-of-bounds read vulnerabilities, which may allow remote code execution.
  • CVE-2018-17911 stack-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities, which may allow remote code execution.
  • CVE-2018-17899 path traversal vulnerability, which may allow remote code execution
  • CVE-2018-17901 when processing project files the application fails to sanitize user input prior to performing write operations on a stack object, which may allow an attacker to execute code under the current process.
  • CVE-2018-17897 integer overflow to buffer overflow vulnerabilities, which may allow remote code execution.
  • CVE-2018-17893 untrusted pointer dereference vulnerability, which may allow remote code execution.

Remedy: Upgrade to 4.1.0.4114 or later
