Vulnerability Published: 2011-05-20
Patch Published: 2011-05-20
CVE [?]: CVE-2011-2386
CPE [?]: cpe:/a:visiwave:site_survey

Synopsis

The remote Windows host has an application that is affected by a file handling overflow vulnerability.

Description

The version of VisiWave Site Survey on the remote host is earlier than 2.1.9 and thus reportedly contains a file handling overflow. If an attacker provides a malicious VWR file and convinces a user to open it with VisiWave, VisiWave may execute malicious code in the context of the user.

Solution
