McAfee EPolicy Orchestrator and ProtectionPilot HTTP Server Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

The HTTP server component of McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator and ProtectionPilot is prone to a remote stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability that can lead to complete system compromise.

This issue arises because the application fails to perform boundary checks before copying user-supplied data into sensitive process buffers.

A successful attack may result in arbitrary code execution with SYSTEM privileges, leading to a full compromise.

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator 3.5.0 patch 5 and prior versions as well as ProtectionPilot 1.1.1 patch 2 and prior versions are vulnerable to this issue.
