"The remote host is running Helix DNA Server or Helix Server, a media
streaming server. 

The version of the Helix server installed on the remote host contains
a heap overflow involving an invalid 'LoadTestPassword' field.  An
unauthenticated, remote attacker can leverage this flaw using a simple
'DESCRIBE' request to crash the affected application and possibly to
execute arbitrary code subject to the privileges of the user id under
which it runs, which by default on Windows is LOCAL SYSTEM." );
