The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the AntServer Module (AntServer.exe) when processing TCP requests. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending an overly large "USV" request to TCP port 6660. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.52. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Restrict network access to trusted users only.
