Veritas Storage Exec buffer overflow
A vulnerability has been reported in Storage Exec/StorageCentral, which can
be exploited and may cause harm to a user’s system. The vulnerability is
caused due to boundary errors in multiple DCOM servers that can be accessible
via the associated ActiveX controls. This can be exploited to cause stack-based
or heap-based buffer overflows. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary code
execution, and the user is tricked into visiting a malicious Web site. The vulnerability
has been reported in Veritas’ StorageCentral 5.2 and Storage Exec 5.3 versions.
