The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the AntServer Module (AntServer.exe) when processing HTTP requests. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly large HTTP GET request sent to an affected server. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. This is related to vulnerability #1 in: SA29831 The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.50. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Restrict network access to the TCP port on which AntServer is listening (TCP port 6660 by default).
