OpenPegasus WBEM CIM Management Server 'PAMBasicAuthenticatorUnix.cpp' Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
OpenPegasus is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input. This issue occurs in the PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module) authentication code. Attackers can leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code with superuser privileges. Successful exploits will completely compromise affected computers. Failed attacks will likely cause denial-of-service conditions. Versions in the OpenPegasus 2.6 series are vulnerable. |
