Description

The RepliStor Server Service in EMC Replistor 6.1.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a size value that causes RepliStor to create a smaller buffer than expected, which triggers a buffer overflow when that buffer is used in a recv function call.

• CWE-119Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory BufferThe product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
