Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Open Text Search Server, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the STRlib.dll library used by the Hummingbird STR service (STRsvc.exe). This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted packet sent to TCP port 10500.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
