The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the MicroWorld Agent service (MWAGENT.EXE) when decrypting received commands. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long command sent to the service (default port 2222/tcp).
This vulnerability has been resolved in the latest hotfix and version 9.0.178.1 and later. MWAGENT.EXE is a gateway between eScan client and server. To avoid this vulnerability, we are using encrypted data format.
