Bug vulnerability class | Buffer Overflow |
Bug description | The remote host is running a version of Open DC Hub, a peer-to-peer file sharing application, which is vulnerable to a remote buffer overflow. A successful exploit would allow a remote attacker to execute code on the remote host. It must be noted that the remote attacker needs administrative access to this application. |
Bug solution | The software should be deactivated or de-installed if not necessary. To make it harder to find the server the daemon could be configured to listen at another port (e.g. 8081). Try to prevent unwanted connection attempts by filtering traffic with firewalling. A selfmade patch has been published in the initial bugtraq posting. |
