Detailed Description |
A version of IBM TPM for OS Deployment which is older than version 5.1.0.2 with Interim Fix 2 has been installed on the host. Tivoli Provisioning Manager for OS Deployment versions prior to 5.1.0.2 with Interim Fix 2 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities in the HTTP server. By sending a specially-crafted HTTP POST request to the management interface running on port 8080 or 443, a remote attacker could cause the affected server to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code on the system with SYSTEM privileges.
* Note: This check solely relied on the version number of the remote IBM TPM service to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
