EMC RepliStor Server Heap Overflow Vulnerability
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY

A vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable
installations of EMC RepliStor Server. User interaction is not required to
exploit this vulnerability.

DETAILS

The specific flaw exists in the RepliStor Server Service that listens by
default on TCP port 7144. The vulnerable function trusts a
user-supplied size value allowing an attacker to create an undersized
buffer. A later call to recv() overflows that buffer allowing for
arbitrary code execution in the context of the SYSTEM user.
