Summary
[none]
Details

A stack buffer overflow exists in wolfSSL's PKCS7 implementation in the wcPKCS7DecryptOri() function in wolfcrypt/src/pkcs7.c. When processing a CMS EnvelopedData message containing an OtherRecipientInfo (ORI) recipient, the function copies an ASN.1-parsed OID into a fixed 32-byte stack buffer (oriOID[MAXOIDSZ]) via XMEMCPY without first validating that the parsed OID length does not exceed MAXOIDSZ. A crafted CMS EnvelopedData message with an ORI recipient containing an OID longer than 32 bytes triggers a stack buffer overflow. Exploitation requires the library to be built with --enable-pkcs7 (disabled by default) and the application to have registered an ORI decrypt callback via wcPKCS7SetOriDecryptCb().
