| Brunswick Circuit Pro Bowling
| Stack Buffer Overflow via unchecked Custom Bowler Name length
| Brunswick Circuit Pro Bowling offers players to create their own bowlers in terms of physical appearances and names. The bowlers' name is limited up to 15 characters long. When the player wants to create name, it is copied to the stack, however the string length is not checked. With a very large string, one can overwrite the stack and take control of the return address '''($ra register)''' to eventually jump to unsigned code in the savegame.

Since the string length/size is not checked, one can use a very large string to overwrite several stack registers including the '''''$ra(return address)''''' to eventually jump to unsigned code in the savegame.
