A vulnerability has been identified in LANDesk products, which could be exploited by remote attackers to take complete control of an affected system. This issue is caused by a buffer overflow error within the QIP Server Service (qipsrvr.exe) when processing malformed "heal" requests sent to port 12175/TCP, which could be exploited by remote attackers to crash an affected service or execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges.
