Problem: Overly large parameters can cause execution of arbitrary code (buffer overflow) 
Versions: prior to 2.5.7 
Risk: High 
Solution: Upgrade to version 2.5.7 

A vulnerability has been identified in ELOG, which could be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service. This flaw is due to an input validation error in "elogd" that does not properly handle an overly large value passed to the "cmd" and "mode" parameters, which could be exploited by remote attackers to crash a vulnerable system.
