Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in IBM Tivoli Provisioning Manager for OS Deployment, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and potentially compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the logging functionality of the web server component. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted request with an overly large HTTP request method to an affected system (port TCP/443).

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is reported in version 5.1.0.3.
