Description:
Mark Litchfield has reported a vulnerability in SAP DB, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within waHTTP.exe and can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted HTTP request to default port 9999/TCP.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but requires that SAP DB is installed to run on its own web server.
