Common Weakness Enumeration
- CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer OverflowA heap overflow condition is a buffer overflow, where the buffer that can be overwritten is allocated in the heap portion of memory, generally meaning that the buffer was allocated using a routine such as malloc().
- CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds WriteThe software writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
