Minicom is a text-based serial port communications program.

+
+ +

In minicom before version 2.7.1, the escparms[] buffer in vt100.c is + vulnerable to an overflow. +

+
+ +

A remote attacker, able to connect to a minicom port, could possibly + execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process, or cause a + Denial of Service condition. +

+
+ +

There is no known workaround at this time.

+
+ +

All minicom users should upgrade to the latest version:
