SolarWinds Dameware Mini Remote Control Client Public Key Buffer Over-read

high Nessus Plugin ID 126263

Synopsis

The remote host is running a remote control application that is affected by a buffer over-read vulnerability.

Description

The SolarWinds Dameware Mini Remote Control Client Agent running on the remote host is affected by a buffer over-read vulnerability due to improper validation of user-supplied data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a series of requests, to cause a denial of service condition.

Note that the software is reportedly affected by additional vulnerabilities; however, this plugin has not tested for these.

Solution

Upgrade to SolarWinds Dameware Mini Remote Control v12.1 Hotfix 2 or later, and make sure the DWRCRSS.dll used by the running client agent (DWRCS.exe) is v12.1.0.89 or later.
