Synopsis :
The remote service is affected by a buffer overflow vulnerability.
Description :
According to its version number, the installation of eScan on the
remote host includes a service, the MicroWorld Agent service, for
remote administration that fails to properly handle overly-long
commands. A remote attacker can leverage this issue to crash the
service or even execute arbitrary code.
Since the service operates with LocalSystem privileges, successful
exploitation could lead to a complete compromise of the affected host.
