Synopsis

The remote host contains an application that is affected by a buffer overflow vulnerability.

Description

The remote Windows host has a version earlier than 2.3 of the Moxa Device Manager (MDM) Tool, used for managing embedded industrial control systems across the Internet. Such versions are affected by a buffer overflow vulnerability that can be triggered using a specially crafted MDM2_Gateway response.

If an attacker can trick a user into connecting with the affected application to a malicious gateway, he can leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code on the affected host, subject to the user's privileges.

Solution

Upgrade to Moxa Device Manager Tool 2.3 or later.
