SIEMENS Sipass Integrated 2.6 Ethernet Bus Arbitrary Pointer Dereference

This vulnerability exists within AscoServer.exe during the handling of RPC messages over the Ethernet Bus. Insufficient sanity checking allows remote and unauthenticated attackers to corrupt a Heap-Allocated Structure and then dereference an arbitrary pointer.

When manipulating an IOCP message, it is possible to alter the behavior of message parsing. This allows another IOCP message to subvert the listener of IOCP messages, which leads to export of a write-n primitive.

This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on the target system, under the context of the SYSTEM account, where the vulnerable versions of SIEMENS SiPass Integrated are installed.
