Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. 2) A boundary error in the SMPP server when processing SMPP packets can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted SMPP packet. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code but requires that the SMPP server is enabled and a specific port is set. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2007.06.27. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Restrict network access to the services.
