NetShareWatcher 1.5.8.0 contains a structured exception handler buffer overflow vulnerability that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying malicious input. Attackers can craft a payload with overwritten SEH and NSEH pointers through the Restrictions custom filter field to trigger code execution when the Find function is invoked.
The CVSS severity warrants an early asset and exposure review.
