CVE-2007-5252
Buffer overflow in NetSupport Manager (NSM) Client 10.00 and 10.20, and NetSupport School Student (NSS) 9.00, allows remote NSM servers to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted data in the configuration exchange phase…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.93%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Buffer overflow in NetSupport Manager (NSM) Client 10.00 and 10.20, and NetSupport School Student (NSS) 9.00, allows remote NSM servers to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted data in the configuration exchange phase of an initial connection setup. NOTE: a vendor statement, which is too vague to be sure that it is for this particular issue, says that only a denial of service is possible.
