Cisco IOS Virtual Private Dial-up Network Denial of Service Vulnerability
updated: 28-Mar-08
Two vulnerabilities exist in the virtual private dial-up network (VPDN) solution when Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is used in certain Cisco IOS releases prior to 12.3. PPTP is only one of the supported tunneling protocols used to tunnel PPP frames within the
VPDN solution.

The first vulnerability is a memory leak that occurs as a result of PPTP session termination. The second vulnerability may consume all interface descriptor blocks on the affected device because those devices will not reuse virtual access interfaces. If these vulnerabilities are repeatedly exploited, the memory and/or interface
resources of the attacked device may be depleted.

Cisco IOS User Datagram Protocol Delivery Issue For IPv4/IPv6 Dual-stack Routers
updated: 28-Mar-08
A device running Cisco IOS software that has Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) enabled may be subject to a denial of service (DoS) attack.

For the device to be affected by this vulnerability the device also has to have certain Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) User Datagram Protocol (UDP) services enabled.

To exploit this vulnerability an offending IPv6 packet must be targeted to the device. Packets that are routed throughout the router can not trigger this vulnerability. Successful exploitation will prevent the interface from receiving any additional traffic. The only exception
is Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) service, which if exploited, will cause the device to crash. Only the interface on which the vulnerability was exploited will be affected.

ssl-cert eclass Certificate Disclosure
updated: 21-Mar-08
The docert() function provided by ssl-cert.eclass can be called by source building stages of an ebuild, such as src_compile() or src_install(), which will result in the generated SSL keys being included inside binary packages (binpkgs).

A local attacker could recover the SSL keys from publicly readable binary packages when "emerge" is called with the "--buildpkg (-b)" or "--buildpkgonly (-B)" option. Remote attackers can recover these keys if the packages are served to a network. Binary packages built using "quickpkg" are not affected.

Double-free, uninitialized data vulnerabilities in krb5kdc
updated: 19-Mar-08
When Kerberos 4 support is enabled in the MIT Kerberos 5 KDC, malformed messages may trigger two bugs:

CVE-2008-0062: A global variable holding a pointer to the message to be sent back to the client is only set for two recognized krb4 message types, but may be used (and freed) in additional cases, resulting in use of a null or dangling pointer.

CVE-2008-0063: The incoming krb4 message is copied into a fixed-size buffer on the stack, but the remainder of the buffer is left untouched, and the bounds checks use the size of the buffer, not the size of the data copied into it.

By default, Kerberos 4 support is compiled in but not enabled in recent versions, and these bugs are not exposed unless Kerberos 4 support is enabled.

CVE-2008-0062: An unauthenticated remote attacker may cause a krb4-enabled KDC to crash, expose information, or execute arbitrary code. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could compromise the Kerberos key database and host security on the KDC host.

CVE-2008-0063: An unauthenticated remote attacker may cause a krb4-enabled KDC to expose information. It is theoretically possible for the exposed information to include secret key data on some platforms.

updated: 19-Mar-08
Dovecot < 1.0.13-r1 uses the group configured via the "mail_extra_groups" setting, which should be used to create lockfiles in the /var/mail directory, when accessing arbitrary files. Besides, dovecot does not escape TAB characters in passwords when saving them, which might allow for argument injection in blocking passdbs such as MySQL, PAM or shadow.

Remote attackers can exploit the first vulnerability to disclose sensitive data, such as the mail of other users, or modify files or directories that are writable by group via a symlink attack. Please note that the "mail_extra_groups" setting is set to the "mail" group by default when the "mbox" USE flag is enabled.

F5 BIG-IP Web Management Console XSS

updated: 12-Mar-08
F5 BIG-IP web management interface contains a potentially persistent cross-site scripting vulnerability in the "Console" feature. Output from executed console commands is wrapped in textarea so the content is displayed verbatim but there is no protection against forced premature termination of the textarea block with an injected textarea tag.

One possible persistent exploitation is for an attacker to create a log entry with an embedded script that gets executed any time the corresponding log file is later reviewed in the Console by an administrator. It is possible to craft URL links that would generate a suitable log entry with a simple HTTP GET request. This allows the attack to be carried out remotely. The vulnerability has been identified in F5 BIG-IP 9.4.3.

SAP MaxDB Signedness Error Heap Corruption Vulnerability
updated: 11-Mar-08
A signedness error was reported in the "vserver" component of SAP MaxDB 7.6.0.37. After accepting a connection, the "vserver" process forks and reads parameters from the client into various structures. When doing so, it trusts values sent from the client to be valid. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker can cause heap corruption. This leads to a potentially exploitable memory corruption condition.

Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the running service. In order to exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must be able to establish a TCP session on port 7210 with the target host. Additionally, the attacker must know the name of an active database on the server.

Since this service uses the fork() system call once a connection has been accepted, an attacker can repeatedly attempt to exploit this vulnerability. Some exploitation attempts may result in the database process ceasing to run, in which case further exploitation attempts will not be possible.

Multiple vulnerabilities in Google's Android SDK
updated: 11-Mar-08
Several vulnerabilities have been found in Android SDK m3-rc37a and earlier for processing graphic content in some of the most used image formats (PNG, GIF an BMP). While some of these vulnerabilities stem from the use of outdated and vulnerable open source image processing libraries other were introduced by native Android code that use them or that implements new functionality.

Exploitation of these vulnerabilities to yield complete control of a phone running the Android platform has been proved possible using the emulator included in the SDK, which emulates phone running the Android platform on an ARM microprocessor.

Upgrade to a safer version.

Borland VisiBroker Smart Agent Heap Overflow
updated: 6-Mar-08
A remotely exploitable heap overflow was found in the Borladn VisiBroker Smart Agent 08.00.00.C1.03.

Smart Agent binds the UDP port 14000 and an UDP and TCP port which changes at every launch (the first free ports to bind found by the program). The protocol used on these three ports (so all exploitables) includes the handling of strings that are composed by a 32 bit number which tells how much long is the string and a subsequent 32 bit number which specifies the size in the packet padded to 8.

It's enough to set 0xffffffff as first number to cause the allocation of 0 bytes of memory (0xffffffff + 1) and the subsequent usage of strncpy(allocated_memory, our_string, our_padded_size) which can allow an attacker to crash the service or possibly executing malicious code.

Exists also a secondary minor vulnerability, in fact the server is automatically terminated if the amount of memory specified by the client can't be allocated.

PoC exploit has been published.

Perforce Server Multiple Vulnerabilities
updated: 6-Mar-08
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Perforce Server 2007.3/143793.

The first type of vulnerabilities includes the NULL pointers generated by the absence of some parameters in the client's request and the lack of checks on the pointers returned by the functions which get these values from the packets.

A secondary type of vulnerabilities is exploitable through the server-DiffFile and server-ReleaseFile commands, in this case the problem is caused by the 32 bit number provided by the client which is used as amount of elements in the initialization of an array.

Another problem is then exploitable again with a malformed server-DiffFile command and allows to force the server in an endless loop which will cause its termination after having consumed all the memory and the resources of the system.

PoC exploit has been published.

SMSGate Denial of Service
updated: 2-Mar-08
A vulnerability was discovered in the way SMSGate 1.n handles incoming HTTP requests allows remote attackers to cause the server to crash.

When a too big HTTP Content-Length value is received, the server tries to allocate the specified amount of memory and when fails shows a debug messagebox in which the admin must choose if aborting the application, debugging it or ignoring the problem (in which case the server will continue to work correctly).

The entire server will be completely unreachable for all the time the Ignore button is not selected, so nobody can send SMS and the remote admin can't manage the server.

Exists also another problem caused by a malformed or non-existent Content-Length value which causes only the showing of an error messagebox (about the impossibility of writing the NULL delimiter at uninitialized pointer at offset 0xcccccccc) since the server will continue to work correctly.

Note the limitation described at the beginning of this section (local IPs only) doesn't affect the exploiting of the vulnerability, so any attacker from any IP address can block the server.

Ghostscript Buffer Overflow
updated: 2-Mar-08
Ghostscript version 8.61 and prior is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow in the zseticcspace() function in zicc.c. The issue is over-trust of the length of a postscript array which an attacker can set to an arbitrary length. One slight amusement is that the overflowed type is "float", leading to machine code.

PoC exploit code has been published.
