Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in TIBCO SmartSockets, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
1) Input validation errors in the RTserver component when handling requests, which uses values in the request as pointers, pointer offsets, or loop bounds, can be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
