What is CVE-2019-25612?

The version 1.2.5.485 of Admin Express, developed by Softonic, is susceptible to a local structured exception handling buffer overflow vulnerability. This flaw allows an attacker with local access to craft a payload that, when injected into the Folder Path field through the System Compare feature, can result in the execution of arbitrary code. Upon pasting the expertly crafted buffer overflow payload and initiating the action via the interface, the attacker can execute shellcode with the application's privileges, potentially compromising system integrity.
