Heap-based buffer overflow in adsmdll.dll 5.3.7.7296, as used by the daemon (dsmsvc.exe) in the backup server in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) Express 5.3.7.3 and earlier and TSM 5.2, 5.3 before 5.3.6.0, and 5.4.0.0 through 5.4.4.0, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted length value.
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.
