Threat: VirTool.Win32.Afix
Vulnerability: Local Stack Buffer Overflow
Description: VirTool.Win32.Afix By Zimenkov doesn't properly validate the files it opens. Therefore, opening a specially crafted (EXE) file triggers a stack buffer overflow overwriting EAX register. EAX register typically stores return values from functions. This can allow an attacker to control program execution flow resulting in arbitrary code execution.
Type: PE32
