-- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of Citrix Provisioning Services. Authentication
is not required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists within the streamprocess.exe component which
listens by default on UDP port 6095. When handling a packet of type
0x40020010 the process blindly copies user supplied data into a fixed
length buffer on the stack. A remote attacker can exploit this
vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the SYSTEM
user.
