CVE-2002-0391 describes an integer overflow vulnerability in the xdr_array function of RPC servers, impacting operating systems utilizing libc, glibc, or SunRPC-derived code, including FreeBSD, Microsoft, OpenBSD, and Sun products. This critical vulnerability (CVSS 9.8) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying a large number of arguments to RPC services like rpc.cmsd and dmispd, leading to complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Despite its high severity and potential for remote code execution, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
