Title: IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Express and Enterprise Server Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Severity: CRITICAL

Description:

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) is an enterprise product for managing data backup.

The IBM TSM Express and Enterprise servers are prone to a remote heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerability. Specifically, this issue occurs because 'adsmdll.dll' uses user-supplied data without performing boundary checks.

A remote attacker may exploit this issue by sending specially crafted packets to the vulnerable application.

Successfully exploiting this issue would allow the attacker to corrupt memory and execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected application. Typically, the application runs with SYSTEM-level privileges.
