Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2024-10442 is an off-by-one error vulnerability (CWE-193) in the transmission component of Synology Replication Service versions prior to 1.0.12-0066, 1.2.2-0353, and 1.3.0-0423, as well as Synology Unified Controller (DSMUC) versions prior to 3.1.4-23079. The flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 10.0 and permits remote code execution with full system impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Unauthenticated attackers with network access can exploit the issue without user interaction to run arbitrary code on affected systems, potentially compromising the broader environment through unspecified vectors.

The official Synology advisory Synology_SA_24_22 recommends updating Replication Service and DSMUC to the fixed releases listed above to address the vulnerability.

The associated EPSS score remains flat at 0.1459 with no material increase observed since disclosure.
