The version of IBM Informix Dynamic Server installed on the remote host is 11.50.x or 11.70.x prior to 11.70.xC7. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability in the ‘genxmlqueryhdr’ and genxmlquery’ XML functions due to an overflow condition. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted statement, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
