Honeywell OPOS Suite Stack Buffer Overflow

high Nessus Plugin ID 80910

Synopsis

The remote host is vulnerable to multiple stack-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities.

Description

The Honeywell OPOS Suite installed on the remote host is prior to version 1.13.4.15. It is, therefore, affected by stack-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities in the bundled 'HWOPOSScale.ocx' and 'HWOPOSSCANNER.ocx' ActiveX controls, due to a failure to check the length of user-supplied input to the Open method. A remote attacker, using a specially crafted web page, can exploit these to execute arbitrary code.

Solution

Upgrade to product version 1.13.4.15 or later.
