An attacker could use this vulnerability to cause a stack buffer overflow and as a result, perform an attack such as remote code execution.

Common Weakness Enumeration
- CWE-121 - Stack-based Buffer OverflowA stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function).
- CWE-843 - Access of Resource Using Incompatible Type ('Type Confusion')The program allocates or initializes a resource such as a pointer, object, or variable using one type, but it later accesses that resource using a type that is incompatible with the original type.
