Multiple Beijer Electronics products contain an overflow condition in an unspecified function in a DLL bundled with the products. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when parsing unspecified files containing overly long strings. With a specially crafted file, a context-dependent attacker can cause a buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service or potentially execution of arbitrary code.
