CVE-2008-1697

Status: ModifiedHigh (10)—

Stack-based buffer overflow in ovwparser.dll in HP OpenView Network Node Manager (OV NNM) 7.53, 7.51, and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long URI in an HTTP request processed by ovas.exe, as demonstrated by a certain topology/homeBaseView request. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

CVSS
