What is CVE-2007-2954?

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows exist within the Spooler service (nwspool.dll) of Novell Client versions 4.91 SP2 through SP4 for Windows. These vulnerabilities can be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending malformed long arguments in specific RPC requests, such as RpcAddPrinterDriver and RpcGetPrinterDriverDirectory, along with other undisclosed RPC requests. This creates significant risks for users if not addressed promptly.
