CVE-2019-3633 — Mcafee Data Loss Prevention Endpoint security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 5.5

Buffer overflow in McAfee Data Loss Prevention (DLPe) for Windows 11.x prior to 11.3.2.8 allows local user to cause the Windows operating system to "blue screen" via a carefully constructed message sent to DLPe which bypasses DLPe internal checks and results in DLPe reading unallocated memory.

Matched remediation archetype

Buffer bounds, memory safety, and memory corruption

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Identify affected native-code versions, build flags, architectures, parsers, codecs, drivers, and input paths in all shipped artifacts.
  • Determine whether untrusted data reaches the affected routine and the process privilege, sandbox, and network exposure.
  • Confirm statically linked, vendored, firmware, and platform-provided copies, not only package-manager records.

Remediate safely

  • Apply the maintained upstream correction or replace the affected component, then rebuild every dependent artifact from clean inputs.
  • Adopt bounds-checked interfaces, validated sizes and integer conversions, clear ownership, and memory-safe components where practical.
  • Enable supported compiler and runtime hardening and add sanitized tests and fuzz regression seeds derived from non-weaponized fixtures.
