Description:
Tan Chew Keong has reported a vulnerability in NodeManager Professional, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to boundary error during the logging of SNMPv1 traps. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending e.g. a malicious LinkDown-Trap datagram containing an overly long OCTET-STRING to a vulnerable system.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 2.00.
Solution:
Update to version 2.01.
Provided and/or discovered by:
Tan Chew Keong
