Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Symantec Veritas Storage Foundation, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service or take complete control of an affected system.

The first issue is caused by a heap overflow error in the administrative service (vxsvc.exe) when processing specially crafted packets sent to port 3207/UDP, which could be exploited by remote unauthenticated attackers to crash an affected application or execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

The second vulnerability is caused by an error in the Scheduler Service (VxSchedService.exe) when handling malformed packets sent to port 4888/TCP, which could be exploited by an attacker with network access to cause an invalid memory access and crash an affected service, creating a denial of service condition.
