Borland CaliberRM StarTeam PGMWebHandler::parse_request() buffer overflow
| starteam-pgmwebhandlerparserequest-bo (41647) |  High Risk |
Description:
Borland CaliberRM StarTeam is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the PGMWebHandler::parse_request() function in STMulticastService. If MPX Events and the StarTeam Message Broker option is enabled during installation, a remote attacker from within the local network could send an overly long HTTP request to TCP port 3057 to overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with SYSTEM privileges.
