Detail
Vulnerability Note VU#987308HP LoadRunner buffer overflow vulnerabilityOverviewHP LoadRunner contains a buffer overflow vulnerability when parsing Virtual User script files.I. DescriptionAccording to HP's website: HP LoadRunner software is the industry standard for performance validation. It allows you to prevent application performance problems by detecting bottlenecks before a new system or upgrade is deployed. HP LoadRunner contains a buffer overflow vulnerability when parsing Virtual User script (.usr) files containing long strings for directives, causing the HP LoadRunner application to crash.II. ImpactAn attacker could exploit the vulnerability by tricking a user into opening a crafted .usr file, causing HP LoadRunner to crash leading to possible execution of arbitrary code.III. SolutionHP has stated they are planning to release a patch to address this vulnerability. As of this writing the patch has not been released.Vendor Information
