Landesk QIP Server Service Heal Packet Buffer OverflowVulnerability
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of LANDesk Management Suite. Authentication is
not required to exploit this vulnerability.

DETAILS

The specific flaw exists within the QIP Server Service (qipsrvr.exe) which
listens by default on TCP port 12175. The process makes a vulnerable call
to MultiByteToWideChar using values obtained from packet data. A malicious
'heal' request can allow an attacker to control both the pointer to the
StringToMap and the StringSize arguments. The destination buffer is either
allocated on the stack or heap depending on the specified sizes. In both
cases it can be overflown leading to arbitrary code execution under the
context of the SYSTEM user.

Vendor Response:
LANDesk has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More details
