http://secunia.com/advisories/29402/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
System access

>From local network

SOFTWARE:
ASUS Remote Console 2.x
http://secunia.com/product/18006/

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

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the ASUS
DPC Proxy service (DpcProxy.exe) and can be exploited to cause a
stack-based buffer overflow by e.g. sending an overly long string to
default port 623/TCP.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.0.0.19 and reported in
version 2.0.0.24. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict network access to the service.
