remote buffer overflow attack.");

"The version of Novell File Reporter (NFR) Agent installed on the
remote Windows host is earlier than 1.0.4.2. Such versions reportedly
have a buffer overflow vulnerability because the service, which
listens by default on TCP port 3037, blindly copies user-supplied data
into a fixed-length buffer on the stack when handling the contents of
an XML tag.

An unauthenticated, remote attacker with access to the agent service
can leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code under the context of
the SYSTEM user.");
