IBM Omnifind Enterprise Edition is prone to an overflow condition. The 'Java_com_ibm_es_oss_CryptionNative_ESEncrypt' function in '/opt/IBM/es/lib/libffq.cryptionjni.so' in the login form in the administration interface fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow. With a long password, a remote attacker can potentially execute arbitrary code.
