CVE-2015-2110
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 · uneditedBuffer overflow in HP LoadRunner 11.52 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.
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.
dbcve analysis · low confidenceHP LoadRunner 11.52 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors. The CVSS score of 10 indicates critical severity with complete system compromise potential.

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.
-
Verify HP LoadRunner is installedCheck the Windows registry under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall for an entry named 'HP LoadRunner' or 'LoadRunner', or look for the LoadRunner installation directory (commonly C:\Program Files\HP\LoadRunner or C:\Program Files (x86)\HP\LoadRunner)Affected if HP LoadRunner software is present on the system
-
Confirm the installed version numberOpen the registry key or check the 'version' property of the LoadRunner uninstall entry, or run the LoadRunner launcher and check About/Version informationAffected if The version reported is exactly 11.52
-
Check if LoadRunner services are runningOpen Services control panel (services.msc) or run 'sc query' command and look for HP LoadRunner services such as 'LoadRunner Controller' or 'LoadRunner Agent'Affected if Any HP LoadRunner services are in a running state (the vulnerability can be exploited via unspecified vectors when the software is active)
-
Identify exposed network listenersRun 'netstat -an' and look for listening ports commonly used by LoadRunner (port 54345 for Agent, port 8080 for Web interface, or other custom ports configured for the Controller)Affected if LoadRunner ports are listening on network interfaces accessible to attackers
A system is affected if HP LoadRunner version 11.52 is installed and the software or its services are active, regardless of whether the specific attack vector is known.

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.
From vendor dataObtain and apply the vendor patch for HP LoadRunner 11.52, or upgrade to a fixed version if available. If no patch exists, consider isolating the affected system or disabling the vulnerable component until remediation is possible.
