CVE-2021-31616 describes a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in ShapeShift KeepKey hardware wallet firmware versions prior to 7.1.0. This flaw, located in the ethereum_extractThorchainSwapData() function, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending crafted messages over WebUSB. With a CVSS score of 8.8 (High), this vulnerability poses a significant risk due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and high potential for confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise.
