EMC DiskXtender File System Manager Stack Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

EMC DiskXtender File System Manager Stack Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

EMC DiskXtender is prone to a stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.

Authenticated attackers can leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application, which typically runs with SYSTEM privileges. Successful exploits will compromise affected computers. Failed attacks will likely cause denial-of-service conditions.

DiskXtender 6.20.060 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
