Descriptions

Buffer overflow in the sw_rpc_agent_init function in swagentd in Software Distributor (SD), and possibly other DCE applications, in HP HP-UX B.11.11 and B.11.23 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via malformed arguments in an opcode 0x04 DCE RPC request.

Un desbordamiento de búfer en la función sw_rpc_agent_init en swagentd en Software Distributor (SD) y posiblemente en otras aplicaciones DCE, en HP HP-UX versiones B.11.11 y B.11.23, permite a los atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio por medio de argumentos malformados en una petición DCE RPC opcode 0x04.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Hewlett-Packard HP-UX operating system. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the function sw_rpc_agent_init (opcode 0x04) defined in swagentd. Specific malformed arguments can cause function pointers to be overwritten and thereby result in arbitrary code execution.
