HP Tru64 UUCP Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Tru64 is a commercially available Unix operating system originally developed by Digital. It is distributed and maintained by HP.

A buffer overflow has been discovered in the UUCP utility, which is setuid by default. This issue may be exploited by passing an overly long string to the '-s' command line argument.

By exploiting this issue sensitive stack information is corrupted, and arbitrary attacker-supplied code can be executed.
