Summary

HMS Networks PEAK-System Device Driver Setup from 0 through 5.1.2.1151 and PCAN Windows CAN device drivers from 0 through 5.1.2 are affected. The driver's record parser keeps advancing its processed-bytes counter after it rejects a malformed record, which causes an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787). A local user with low privileges can trigger it, with high impact on availability.

Description from the CNA

The parser in PEAK-System PCAN driver correctly detected the malformed record, but the loop iterating the record list advanced its processed-bytes counter even when a record had been rejected as invalid.
