Description:
Krystian Kloskowski has discovered a vulnerability in Download Accelerator Plus, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when verifying URLs imported from certain files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow when a user is tricked into verifying an overly long URL in an imported text-based file.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 8.6.6.3 (DAP.exe) and 7.0.1.3 (DAP.exe). Other versions may also be affected.
