Format string vulnerability in the logDetail function of applib.dll in McAfee Common Management Agent (CMA) 3.6.0.574 (Patch 3) and earlier, as used in ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0.0 build 1015, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a sender field in an AgentWakeup request to UDP port 8082. NOTE: this issue only exists when the debug level is 8.

Weakness

The product uses a function that accepts a format string as an argument, but the format string originates from an external source.
