Vendor:
==============
www.ibm.com


Product:
====================================================
IBM i Access for Windows
Release 7.1 of IBM i Access for Windows is affected


Vulnerability Type:
=======================
Stack Buffer Overflow
Arbitrary Code Exec


CVE Reference:
==============
CVE-2015-2023


Vulnerability Details:
=====================
IBM i Access for Windows is vulnerable to a buffer overflow. A local
attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the Windows PC.

client Access has ability to receive remote commands via "Cwbrxd.exe"
service
Ref: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1019253

"Incoming remote command was designed for running non-interactive commands
and programs on a PC", therefore a remote attacker could execute arbitrary code on the system.

Remediation/Fixes
The issue can be fixed by obtaining and applying the Service Pack SI57907.

The buffer overflow vulnerability can be remediated by applying Service
Pack SI57907.

The Service Pack is available at:
