CVE-2021-28189
The SMTP configuration function in ASUS BMC’s firmware Web management page does not verify the string length entered by users, resulting in a Buffer overflow vulnerability.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.87%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
The SMTP configuration function in ASUS BMC’s firmware Web management page does not verify the string length entered by users, resulting in a Buffer overflow vulnerability. As obtaining the privileged permission, remote attackers use the leakage to abnormally terminate the Web service.
