CVE-2009-20008

Description

Green Dam Youth Escort version 3.17 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow when processing overly long URLs.

A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by enticing a user to visit a specially crafted webpage containing a long URL, resulting in arbitrary code execution.
