TITLE

Norton Personal Firewall Service disruption in (DoS) Vulnerabilities

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2006-002830

DESCRIPTION

Norton Personal Firewall 2006 9.1.0.33 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via certain RegSaveKey, RegRestoreKey and RegDeleteKey operations on the (1) HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SNDSrvc and (2) HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SymEvent registry keys. Microsoft Windows is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability. This issue occurs when a program calls certain API calls for manipulating Windows registry keys. This may crash the affected computer. NOTE: This BID has been revised (July 3, 2007); the issue was originally thought to be a vulnerability in Symantec Norton Personal Firewall, but further investigation reveals a problem in an underlying OS API. Attackers can exploit this issue to crash the affected application, denying service to legitimate users. Norton Firewall does not properly check calls to the standard Windows API functions RegSaveKey, RegRestoreKey, and RegDeleteKey. In the registry key HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SNDSrvc or HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SymEvent, combined calls to the above functions will trigger errors in the implementation of the Norton driver, resulting in a system crash
