CVE-2023-4041

What is CVE-2023-4041?

A vulnerability in the Silicon Labs Gecko Bootloader affects both the Standalone and Application versions, resulting in a buffer overflow that allows for code injection and potential authentication bypass. This flaw arises from inadequate size checks during buffer copy operations and an out-of-bounds write condition, which may enable attackers to execute unauthorized code and compromise the integrity of the firmware. Measures should be taken to patch affected versions and safeguard against such exploits.
