DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in FlexNet Publisher, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the License Server
Manager component (lmadmin) when processing opcode 0x2f packets. This
can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by sending
specially crafted packets to e.g. TCP port 27000.

The vulnerability is reported in version 11.9. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to the affected service to trusted hosts only.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
