# Title: Microsoft Windows cmd.exe - Stack Buffer Overflow

[Product]
cmd.exe is the default command-line interpreter for the OS/2, eComStation, ArcaOS, Microsoft Windows (Windows NT family and Windows CE family), and ReactOS operating systems. 


[Vulnerability Type]
Stack Buffer Overflow


[CVE Reference]
N/A


[Security Issue]
Specially crafted payload will trigger a Stack Buffer Overflow in the NT Windows "cmd.exe" commandline interpreter. Requires running an already dangerous file type like .cmd or .bat. However, when cmd.exe accepts arguments using /c /k flags which execute commands specified by string, that will also trigger the buffer overflow condition.

E.g. cmd.exe /c <PAYLOAD>.
