Last modified
CVE-2008-3159 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Integer overflow in ds.dlm, as used by dhost.exe, in Novell eDirectory 8.7.3.10 before 8.7.3 SP10b and 8.8 before 8.8.2 ftf2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors that trigger a stack-based buffer overflow, related to "flawed arithmetic.". EPSS estimates a 8.67% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
