Description
ovalarmsrv in HP OpenView Network Node Manager (OV NNM) 7.51, 7.53, and possibly other versions allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via certain requests that specify a large number of sub-arguments, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference due to memory allocation failure.
