HP System Management Homepage Single Sign On Parameter Handling RCE

The HP System Management Homepage (SMH) application running on the remote web server potentially contains an overflow condition in the Single Sign On (SSO) functionality due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling overly long parameters. A remote attacker could exploit this to cause a stack-based buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code.

Note that this plugin attempts to crash the HPSMHD process, but the process can be restarted by a parent process.
