CVE-2012-6568

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Huawei UTPS version 1.0

Description A buffer overflow issue exists in the back-end component due to a long IDS PLUGIN NAME string in a plug-in configuration file, allowing local users to gain privileges.

Recommendations For Huawei UTPS version 1.0, consider restricting access to the plug-in configuration file to prevent exploitation of the buffer overflow issue until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, limit the length of the IDS PLUGIN NAME string in the plug-in configuration file to prevent buffer overflow.
