Discussion

Computer Associates Alert Notification Server Multiple Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

Computer Associates Alert Notification Server is prone to multiple remote buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because the application fails to bounds-check user-supplied input before copying it into an insufficiently sized memory buffer.

Successfully exploiting these issues allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary machine code with SYSTEM-level privileges. This will result in a complete compromise of affected computers.
