Subject Vulnerability and Fix??
Author Kurt Federspiel
Greets.

Generally we install on systems behind a firewall, but have one system out on the Internet. We received an email about a vulnerability where someone was able to run cmd.exe from our system based on this vulnerability (below).

Our system is currently FB 2.01 Classic on Windows XP Home/Embedded.

Can someone explain the issue and how to fix it on this system or if it is fixed on a subsequent release?

Thanks.
Kurt.
