Title: TIBCO SmartSockets Multiple Pointer Offset Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
TIBCO SmartSockets is a realtime communication system designed for enterprises.
SmartSockets is prone to multiple remote code-execution vulnerabilities that occur when the application processes requests. User-supplied input is used to offset valid pointers that are later used for memory operations.
Attackers can leverage these issues to execute arbitrary code with privileges of the application. If the application is installed as a system service on Windows platforms, then the code will execute with SYSTEM-level privileges. Successful exploits will completely compromise affected computers. Failed attacks will likely cause denial-of-service conditions.
SmartSockets 6.8.0 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
The following components are affected:
TIBCO RTworks Server (rtserver)
TIBCO RTworks Data Archive Process (rtarchive)
TIBCO RTworks Data Playback Process (rtplayback)
TIBCO RTworks Data Acquisition Process (rtdaq)
TIBCO RTworks Human Computer Interface (rthci)
TIBCO RTworks Inference Engine (rtie)
TIBCO RTworks libraries (rtipc, rtutil)
Affected Products:
- TIBCO SmartSockets 6.8.0
- TIBCO SmartSockets Product Family (RTworks) 4.0.3
