Multiple buffer overflows in Terascale Open-Source Resource and Queue Manager (aka TORQUE Resource Manager) 2.x before 2.4.14, 2.5.x before 2.5.6, and 3.x before 3.0.2 allow (1) remote authenticated users to gain privileges via a long Job_Name field in a qsub command to the server, and might allow (2) local users to gain privileges via vectors involving a long host variable in pbs_iff.
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.
