VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/29713/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From local network

SOFTWARE:
HP OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) 7.x
http://secunia.com/product/3608/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered a vulnerability in HP OpenView Network
Node Manager, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a
DoS (Denial of Service) or potentially compromise a vulnerable
system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error within
ovspmd.exe and can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow
by sending a specially crafted, overly long packet to default port
8886/TCP.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 7.53 and 7.51. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict network access to ovspmd.exe.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
