A stack-based buffer overflow can be remotely triggered when formatting an error message in the Control-M/Agent when SSL/TLS communication is configured. The issue occurs in the following cases: * Control-M/Agent 9.0.20: SSL/TLS configuration is set to the non-default setting "use_openssl=n"; * Control-M/Agent 9.0.21 and 9.0.22: Agent router configuration uses the non-default settings "JAVA_AR=N" and "use_openssl=n".

CVE-2025-55114 [MEDIUM] CWE-696 GHSA-9w5m-fv42-36cx: The improper order of AUTHORIZED_CTM_IP validation in the Control-M/Agent, where the Control-M/Server IP address is validated only after the SSL/TLS h
The improper order of AUTHORIZED_CTM_IP validation in the Control-M/Agent, where the Control-M/Server IP address is validated only after the SSL/TLS handshake is completed, exposes the Control-M/Agent to vulnerabilities in the SSL/TLS implementation under certain non-default conditions (e.g. CVE-2025-55117 or CVE-2025-55118) or potentially to resource exhaustion.
