Descriptions

SQL injection vulnerability in axengine.exe in Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.8.x and 6.9.x before 6.9.176 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via unspecified string fields in a notification packet.

Vulnerabilidad de inyección SQL en axengine.exe en Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.8.x y 6.9.x en versiones anteriores a 6.9.176 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar comandos SQL arbitrarios a través de campos de cadena no especificado en un paquete de notificación.

This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution. User interaction is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the axengine.exe process listening by default on TCP port 402. A lack of proper sanitation while parsing requests allows for a remote attacker to inject arbitrary SQL statements into the database. Exploitation of this vulnerability can result in arbitrary code execution under the context of the SYSTEM user.
