RUMBA is reported prone to multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities. Theses issues are reported to manifest when RTO and WPA profiles are loaded by the software.

Ultimately it is conjectured that this issue may be exploited by a remote attacker to execute arbitrary attacker-supplied code in the context of the vulnerable software.

RUMBA version 7.3 is reported prone to this issue, previous versions are also reported to be affected.
