CVE-2024-12186

CVE-2024-12186 is a high-severity stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability affecting the code-projects Hotel Management System 1.0, specifically within the Available Room Handler component when processing the hotelnew.c file. This flaw allows a local attacker to achieve high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability by manipulating the admin_entry argument.

The vulnerability requires local access, making it less broadly exploitable but still a significant risk for affected systems.
