Schwerer BUG in Outpost Firewall PRO 4.0 (964.582.059) produziert System-Crash

Description:

Outpost insufficiently protects its driver \Device\SandBox against a manipulation by malicious applications and it fails to validate its input buffer. It is possible to open this driver and send arbitrary data to it, which are implicitly believed to be valid. It is possible to assemble the data in the input buffer such that the driver performs an invalid memory operation and crashes the whole operating system. Further impacts of this bug were not examined.
