Vulnerability Information

Severity: High
Vulnerability Published: N/A
Patch Published: N/A
CVE [?]: CVE-2007-6204
CPE [?]: cpe:/a:ahp:openview_network_node_manager

Synopsis

The remote web server contains multiple CGI scripts that allow execution of arbitrary commands.

Description

The remote version of HP OpenView Network Node Manager fails to sanitize user-supplied input to various parameters used in the 'Openview5', 'snmpview', 'ovlogin' scripts before using it.

By sending long parameters, an attacker would be able to produce a stack-based overflow and exploit it to execute code on the remote host with the web server privileges.

Bad permissions on the web server directory allow a full system compromise.

Solution

Apply patched referenced in the vendor advisory above.
