Unauthorized Access Attempt
Microsoft Dynamics GP (formerly known as Great Plains) is vulnerable to multiple stack and heap-based buffer overflows in the Distributed Process Server (DPS) and Distributed Process Manager (DPM) components. By sending a specially-crafted DPS message containing an overly long string, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Upgrade to the latest version of Microsoft Dynamics GP (10.0 or later), available from the Microsoft Web site. See References.
