Description

HP OpenView Network Node Manager is prone to an overflow condition. The ovuispmd, ovwdb and ovtopmd services fail to properly sanitize user-supplied input due to a flaw in the libovw.so.2 library, resulting in a heap overflow. With a specially crafted request, a remote attacker can potentially cause the execution of arbitrary code.
