Buffer overflow in the logging functionality of the HTTP server in IBM Tivoli Provisioning Manager for OS Deployment (TPMfOSD) before 5.1.0.3 Interim Fix 3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via an HTTP request with a long method string to port 443/tcp.
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.
