CVE-2009-3699 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Stack-based buffer overflow in libcsa.a (aka the calendar daemon library) in IBM AIX 5.x through 5.3.10 and 6.x through 6.1.3, and VIOS 2.1 and earlier, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long XDR string in the first argument to procedure 21 of rpc.cmsd.. EPSS estimates a 62.09% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
