APP: IBM Tivoli Monitoring Express Universal Agent Buffer Overflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against IBM Tivoli Monitoring Express. A successful attack can lead to arbitrary code execution.
Extended Description
IBM Tivoli Monitoring Express Universal Agent is prone to multiple buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because the application fails to bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized memory buffer. An attacker can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code within the context of the vulnerable application. This may facilitate the compromise of affected servers. To leverage these issues, the attacker does not need to authenticate. IBM Tivoli Monitoring Express 6.1 is affected.
