APP: ASUS Remote Console DPC Proxy Server Buffer Overflow

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in ASUS DPC Proxy Server. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the targeted application.

Extended Description

ASUS Remote Console is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to adequately bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized buffer. Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. ASUS Remote Console 2.0.0.19 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
