CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

SOFTWARE:
McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator 4.x
http://secunia.com/product/17062/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered a vulnerability in McAfee ePolicy
Orchestrator, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a
DoS (Denial of Service) or potentially compromise a vulnerable
system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a format string error within the
McAfee Framework Service (FrameworkService.exe) and can be exploited
via specially crafted packets containing format string specifiers
sent to default port 8082/UDP.

Successful exploitation crashes the McAfee Framework Service and may
allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator version
4.0.0 (build 1015) and including FrameworkService.exe version
3.6.0.569. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict network access to the service.
