CVE-2006-5557 - Embarrassed Lieutenant

Description

Stack-based buffer overflow in the (1) swpackage and (2) swmodify commands in HP-UX B.11.11 and possibly other versions allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long -S argument. NOTE: this might be a duplicate of CVE-2006-2574 but the details relating to CVE-2006-2574 are too vague to be certain.
