High

Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Novell iManager versions prior to 2.7.3

Description The issue is related to a stack-based buffer overflow in the eDirectory plugin, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. This is triggered by vectors that involve long arguments to an unspecified sub-application, particularly when importing and exporting from a schema.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.7.3, update to version 2.7.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the eDirectory plugin to minimize the risk of exploitation.
