BOSTON, MA " March 23, 2009 - Core Security Technologies, provider of CORE IMPACT solutions for comprehensive enterprise security testing, today issued an advisory disclosing multiple vulnerabilities that could affect millions of organizations using HP's OpenView systems and network management software.
An engineer from CoreLabs, the research arm of Core Security, determined that a trio of vulnerabilities in HP OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) can be exploited remotely via buffer overflow to compromise mission-critical servers within an organization using the software. Upon making the discovery, CoreLabs immediately alerted HP's Software Security Response Team to the vulnerabilities and the two companies have since coordinated efforts to ensure that a patch could be created and made available to protect users of the program.
