CVE-2022-40984 is a critical stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability affecting Yokogawa WTViewerE series (versions 1.31 to 1.61) and WTViewerEfree (versions 1.01 to 1.52). An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by processing a crafted, long file name, leading to a complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CVSS 9.8). While no public exploits or active exploitation have been observed, and community discussion is minimal, the high severity warrants immediate patching.
