Discussion
AgentX++ 'AgentX::receive_agentx()' Remote Stack Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
AgentX++ is prone to a remote stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability.
Exploiting this issue can allow attackers to execute arbitrary code within the context of the user running the AgentX master process; in some cases the superuser may be the owner of the process. Failed attempts may cause crashes and deny service to legitimate users.
AgentX++ 1.4.16 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected. In addition, these issues affect versions prior to Helix Server and Helix Mobile Server 14.0.
NOTE: This issue was previously covered in BID 39490 (RealNetworks Helix and Helix Mobile Server Multiple Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities) but has been given its own record to better document it.
