Synopsis:
ISS X-Force has discovered a vulnerability in the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator
software. ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) enables the enterprise management of
all manner of security software, from virus and vulnerability scanners to
personal firewalls. The affected versions of ePO server contain a flaw that
can lead to arbitrary code execution on vulnerable systems.
Impact:
Attackers may remotely exploit this vulnerability to gain Administrator
access to any vulnerable ePO server. In addition to the server, this
vulnerability can be used to gain access to ePO agent systems. The ePO
server is commonly used to distribute enterprise-wide updates for security
software, and as such this vulnerability opens up the potential for
enterprise-wide exploitation in certain configurations.
