DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered a vulnerability in Sterling Trader,
which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable
system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an integer overflow error in
Base.exe when allocating memory to process certain data. This can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially
crafted packet sent to a certain TCP port.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code, but
requires guessing a TCP port, which changes when the application
starts.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 7.0.2. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to trusted hosts only.
