Title: McAfee E-Business Server Authentication Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
McAfee E-Business Server secures communication channels on enterprise networks.
E-Business Server is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability that occurs prior to authentication.
The issue affects the administration interface, which is listening on TCP 1718 by default, and occurs when the server handles excessively sized authentication packets.
Attackers can leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code with superuser privileges. Successful exploits will completely compromise affected computers. Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions.
E-Business Server 8.5.2 and prior versions are vulnerable.
NOTE: This issue may be related to the issue described in BID 26269 (McAfee E-Business Server Authentication Packet Handling Integer Overflow Vulnerability).
