APP: HP Power Manager formExportDataLogs Buffer Overflow

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known buffer overflow vulnerability in HP Power Manager. It is due to insufficient bounds checking in the HP Power Manager while processing URL parameters. In a successful code execution attack the injected code is executed within the security context of the SYSTEM user. An unsuccessful exploit attempt can terminate the affected service abnormally and result in a denial-of-service condition.

Extended Description

HP Power Manager is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges, resulting in a complete compromise of the affected computer. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. NOTE: This BID initially referenced CVE-2009-3999 and CVE-2009-4000. These issues are now described in BID 37867 (CVE-2009-3999) and BID 37873 (CVE-2009-4000). Versions prior to Power Manager 4.2.10 are affected.
