Buffer overflow in the setupterm function of (1) lanadmin and (2) landiag programs of HP-UX 10.0 through 10.34 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long TERM environment variable.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
