CVE-2011-1867
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedStack-based buffer overflow in iNodeMngChecker.exe in the User Access Manager (UAM) 5.0 before SP1 E0101P03 and Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD) 5.0 before SP1 E0101P03 components in HP Intelligent Management Center (aka iNode Management Center) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a 0x0A0BF007 packet.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify if HP Intelligent Management Center or its components are installedLook for HP iNode Management Center, User Access Manager (UAM), or Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD) installation directories or check Add/Remove Programs for HP iNode-related softwareAffected if Any of these HP management components are installed
-
Check the installed version of User Access ManagerInspect the UAM version information through the application or its installation directoryAffected if Version is 5.0 (exact match to affected version)
-
Check the installed version of Endpoint Admission DefenseInspect the EAD version information through the application or its installation directoryAffected if Version is 5.0 and the service pack level is before SP1 E0101P03
-
Check if iNodeMngChecker.exe is runningLook for the iNodeMngChecker.exe process in running processes on the systemAffected if The iNodeMngChecker.exe process is active (this is the vulnerable component)
-
Verify the service pack level on UAM or EADCheck the installed service pack or patch level of the UAM or EAD installationAffected if Service pack is not SP1 E0101P03 or later (vulnerable if below this level)
Your environment is affected if HP Intelligent Management Center, User Access Manager 5.0, or Endpoint Admission Defense 5.0 is installed with the iNodeMngChecker.exe component running and the service pack is below SP1 E0101P03.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedApply HP service pack SP1 E0101P03 or later to both UAM and EAD components. If patching is not immediately possible, restrict network access to the iNode Management Center services to trusted internal IPs only.
HP Intelligent Management Center / UAM / EAD SP1 E0101P03 or later
- 1. Identify the exact version of HP Intelligent Management Center, User Access Manager (UAM), or Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD) currently installed
- 2. If the version is earlier than SP1 E0101P03, obtain the SP1 E0101P03 patch or later from HP
- 3. Apply the SP1 E0101P03 patch following HP's standard patch installation procedures
- 4. Verify the installation was successful and the iNodeMngChecker.exe version reflects the patched release
