Buffer overflow in HP LoadRunner allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a .usr (aka Virtual User script) file with long directives.
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.
