  - PCSX2 is a free and open-source PlayStation 2 (PS2) emulator. A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the
    Kprintf_HLE function of PCSX2 versions up to 2.3.414. Opening a disc image that logs a specially crafted
    message may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code if the user enabled IOP Console Logging.
    This vulnerability is fixed in 2.3.414. (CVE-2025-49589)
