LCC-Win32 3.2 compiler, when running on Windows 95, 98, or ME, writes portions of previously used memory after the import table, which could allow attackers to gain sensitive information. NOTE: it has been reported that this problem is due to the OS and not the application.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes an old information-disclosure issue in LCC-Win32 3.2 when used on Windows 95, 98, or ME. The generated binary may include fragments of previously used memory, potentially exposing sensitive data. The record notes the root cause may be the operating system rather than the compiler. Exposure is likely limited to legacy build environments or old binaries produced with LCC-Win32 3.2 on Windows 95/98/ME. Modern production systems are unlikely to be directly affected unless they distribute or rely on those generated executables. Treat this as a targeted legacy-risk review, not an emergency, unless your organization still distributes binaries from affected build environments or keeps sensitive data in those build contexts. Mitigation focus: Check whether any legacy releases were built with LCC-Win32 3.2 on Windows 95/98/ME.; Rebuild affected binaries using a supported compiler and operating system.; Review archived vendor or project guidance before relying on old toolchains..
