Synopsis

There is an application installed on the remote host that is affected by a buffer overflow vulnerability.

Description

Netop Remote Control Guest is installed on the remote Windows host and is less than version 10.0 build 2011087. As such, it reportedly has a flaw in handling '.dws' script files that can be utilized to trigger a buffer overflow.
