| VAR-200801-0029 | CVE-2008-0461 | PHP-Nuke of Search Module index.php In SQL Injection vulnerability |
CVSS V2: 6.8 CVSS V3: - Severity: MEDIUM |
SQL injection vulnerability in index.php in the Search module in PHP-Nuke 8.0 FINAL and earlier, when magic_quotes_gpc is disabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the sid parameter in a comments action to modules.php. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information. PHP-Nuke is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in an SQL query.
Successful exploits could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database.

http://secunia.com/advisories/28624/
CRITICAL:
Moderately critical
IMPACT:
Manipulation of data, Exposure of sensitive information
WHERE:
>From remote
SOFTWARE:
PHP-Nuke 8.x
http://secunia.com/product/13524/
DESCRIPTION:
Foster & 1dt.w0lf have discovered a vulnerability in PHP-Nuke, which
can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection
attacks. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
Successful exploitation allows e.g. retrieving the administrator
password hash, but requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled - not
the value recommended by the installer - and having knowledge of the
database table prefix.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 8.0. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
Set "magic_quotes_gpc" in php.ini to On.
Use another product.

CVSS V2: 5.5 CVSS V3: - Severity: MEDIUM |
The web server in Belkin Wireless G Plus MIMO Router F5D9230-4 does not require authentication for SaveCfgFile.cgi, which allows remote attackers to read and modify configuration via a direct request to SaveCfgFile.cgi.
Successful exploits will allow unauthorized attackers to gain access to administrative functionality and completely compromise vulnerable devices; other attacks are also possible.
The issue affects firmware version 3.01.53; other versions may also be vulnerable.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A new version (0.9.0.0 - Release Candidate 1) of the free Secunia PSI
has been released. The new version includes many new and advanced
features, which makes it even easier to stay patched.
The vulnerability is caused due to missing authentication checks when
accessing the SaveCfgFile.cgi script, which can be exploited to
disclose sensitive information like the router's password.
Note: If remote management is enabled, this can also be exploited
from people outside the local network.
SOLUTION:
Restrict access to the device or use it in trusted network
environments only.
Reportedly, the vendor is working on a fix. A fixed beta version
should be available soon, a final version is planned to be released
before end of February.

| VAR-200909-0057 | CVE-2008-7165 | Alice Gate2 Plus Wi-Fi Router Cross-Site Request Forgery Vulnerability |
CVSS V2: 6.8 CVSS V3: - Severity: MEDIUM |
Cross-site request forgery in cp06_wifi_m_nocifr.cgi in the administrator panel in TELECOM ITALIA Alice Gate2 Plus Wi-Fi allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that disable Wi-Fi encryption via certain values for the wlChannel and wlRadioEnable parameters. Alice Gate2 Plus Wi-Fi routers are prone to a cross-site request-forgery vulnerability.
An attacker can exploit this issue to alter administrative configuration on affected devices. Specifically, altering the wireless encryption settings on devices has been demonstrated. Other attacks may also be possible.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A new version (0.9.0.0 - Release Candidate 1) of the free Secunia PSI
has been released. The new version includes many new and advanced
features, which makes it even easier to stay patched.
The vulnerability is caused due to the device allowing users to
perform certain actions via HTTP requests, without checking the
validity of the request or proper authentication of the user sending
the request. This can be exploited by malicious people to e.g.
disable the encryption of the wireless network by tricking a user
into visiting a malicious site.
SOLUTION:
Visit trusted sites only. Use a firewall to restrict access to the
affected device.

DESCRIPTION:
Hamid Ebadi has discovered two vulnerabilities in MiniWeb HTTP
Server, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose
sensitive information, to cause a DoS (Denial of Service), or to
potentially compromise a vulnerable system.
1) A boundary error exists within the "_mwProcessReadSocket()"
function in http.c. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based
buffer overflow via a URL that is 3600-4000 characters long.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows performing a DoS
(Denial of Service) or the potential execution of arbitrary code.
2) Input passed in the URL to the "mwGetLocalFileName()" function in
http.c is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be
exploited to display arbitrary files with directory traversal attacks
of the form ".%2e/.%2e/" or "%2e%2e/%2e%2e/".
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 0.8.19.

| VAR-200801-0007 | CVE-2008-0027 | Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) and CallManager Heap overflow vulnerability |
CVSS V2: 10.0 CVSS V3: - Severity: HIGH |
Heap-based buffer overflow in the Certificate Trust List (CTL) Provider service (CTLProvider.exe) in Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 4.2 before 4.2(3)SR3 and 4.3 before 4.3(1)SR1, and CallManager 4.0 and 4.1 before 4.1(3)SR5c, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via a long request. Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) and CallManager Contains a heap overflow vulnerability.
Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code or to cause denial-of-service conditions. Authentication is not
required to exploit this vulnerability. The service operates
over a SSL encrypted transport. Due to a logic flaw in the way data is
received in a loop a heap allocation can be arbitrarily overflown
resulting in the control of subsequent heap chunks.
The vulnerability is due to a loop that occurs during receive of socket
data. An initial buffer is allocated at 0x19000 bytes, as can bee seen
here.
.text:00406077 191A8 68+ push 19000h
; size_t
.text:0040607C 191AC FF+ call ds:__imp_malloc

.text:00406088 1919C 85+ test eax, eax
.text:0040608A 1919C 0F+ jz loc_406238
Once allocated data is read in 0x19000 chunks. If more than 0x4000
bytes of data are left on the socket we loop again as can be seen
here.
.text:004060A5 191AC FF+ push dword ptr [ebp-14h]

are not affected by this vulnerability. No other Cisco products are
currently known to be affected by this vulnerability.
Details
=======
Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) is the call processing
component of the Cisco IP telephony solution that extends enterprise
telephony features and functions to packet telephony network devices,
such as IP phones, media processing devices, voice-over-IP (VoIP)
gateways, and multimedia applications. The CTL contains public keys and other
information to allow the Cisco IP Phone devices to establish a
trusted relationship with a CUCM server. The CTL is provisioned using
the CTL Provider service on a CUCM server and with the CTL Provider
client on an administrator workstation. The CTL Provider service
needs to be enabled during the initial configuration of a CUCM server
/cluster or when changes are required to the CTL. Please consult the
Workarounds section of this advisory for information on how to
determine if the CTL Provider service is enabled on a CUCM server. The CTL Provider
service listens on TCP port 2444 by default, but the port can be
modified by the user. This issue is documented in Cisco Bug ID
CSCsj22605.
Vulnerability Scoring Details
=============================
Cisco has provided scores for the vulnerabilities in this advisory
based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). The CVSS
scoring in this Security Advisory is done in accordance with CVSS

Report Confidence - Confirmed
Impact
======
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a DoS
condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
Software Versions and Fixes
===========================
When considering software upgrades, also consult
http://www.cisco.com/go/psirt and any subsequent advisories to
determine exposure and a complete upgrade solution.
In all cases, customers should exercise caution to be certain the
devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and that current
hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported
properly by the new release. If the information is not clear, contact
the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or your contracted
maintenance provider for assistance.
Workarounds
===========
It is possible to workaround the vulnerability by disabling the CTL
Provider service when not in use. Access to the CTL Provider service
is required for the initial configuration of the CUCM authentication
and encryption features, or during configuration updates. For the
CUCM 4.x systems, please consult the following documentation for
details on how to disable the CUCM services:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps556/products_administration_guide_chapter09186a008070ec49.html
Filtering traffic to the affected CUCM systems on screening devices
can be used as a mitigation technique for this vulnerability. To
mitigate the CTL Producer service overflow, access to TCP port 2444
should be permitted only between the CUCM servers and administrator
workstations running the CTL Provider client. There is currently no
supported method to configure filtering directly on a CUCM system.
It is possible to change the default ports of the CTL Provider (TCP
port 2444) service. If changed, filtering should be based on the port
value used. The value of the port can be viewed in CUCM
Administration interface by following the System > Service Parameters
menu and selecting the CTL Provider service.
Filters blocking access to TCP port 2444 should be deployed at the
network edge as part of a transit access control list (tACL). Further
information about transit access control lists is available in the
white paper "Transit Access Control Lists: Filtering at Your Edge,"
which is available at the following link:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk361/technologies_white_paper09186a00801afc76.shtml
Additional mitigations that can be deployed on Cisco devices within
the network are available in the Cisco Applied Mitigation Bulletin
companion document for this advisory:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-amb-20080116-cucmctl.shtml
Obtaining Fixed Software
========================
Cisco has released free software updates that address these
vulnerabilities. Prior to deploying software, customers should
consult their maintenance provider or check the software for feature
set compatibility and known issues specific to their environment.
Customers may only install and expect support for the feature sets
they have purchased. By installing, downloading, accessing or
otherwise using such software upgrades, customers agree to be bound
by the terms of Cisco's software license terms found at

A new version (0.9.0.0 - Release Candidate 1) of the free Secunia PSI
has been released. The new version includes many new and advanced
features, which makes it even easier to stay patched.
1) An unspecified error exists within Foundation in Safari's handling
of URLs. This can be exploited to cause a memory corruption when a
user is enticed to access a specially crafted URL.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
2) A weakness exists due to Launch Services allowing users to start
uninstalled applications from a Time Machine Backup.
3) An error in the handling of file:// URLs in Mail can be exploited
to execute arbitrary applications without warning when a user is
enticed to click on a URL within a message.
4) An unspecified error exists within NFS when handling mbuf chains.
This can be exploited to cause a memory corruption and allows a
system shutdown and potential execution of arbitrary code.
5) The problem is that Parental Controls contacts www.apple.com when
a site is unblocked and allows for detection of computers running
Parental Controls.
6) A boundary error in Samba can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a vulnerable system.
For more information:
SA27760
7) An input validation error exists in Terminal when processing URL
schemes. This can be exploited to launch an application with
arbitrary command line parameters and may allow execution of
arbitrary code when a user visits a specially crafted web page.
8) Multiple vulnerabilities in X11 X Font Server can be exploited by
malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges.
For more information:
SA27040
9) An error exists in X11, which causes certain settings ("Allow
connections from network client") not to be applied.

A new version (0.9.0.0 - Release Candidate 1) of the free Secunia PSI
has been released. The new version includes many new and advanced
features, which makes it even easier to stay patched.
1) An unspecified error exists within Foundation in Safari's handling
of URLs. This can be exploited to cause a memory corruption when a
user is enticed to access a specially crafted URL.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
2) A weakness exists due to Launch Services allowing users to start
uninstalled applications from a Time Machine Backup.
4) An unspecified error exists within NFS when handling mbuf chains.
This can be exploited to cause a memory corruption and allows a
system shutdown and potential execution of arbitrary code.
5) The problem is that Parental Controls contacts www.apple.com when
a site is unblocked and allows for detection of computers running
Parental Controls.
6) A boundary error in Samba can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a vulnerable system.
For more information:
SA27760
7) An input validation error exists in Terminal when processing URL
schemes. This can be exploited to launch an application with
arbitrary command line parameters and may allow execution of
arbitrary code when a user visits a specially crafted web page.
8) Multiple vulnerabilities in X11 X Font Server can be exploited by
malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges.
For more information:
SA27040
9) An error exists in X11, which causes certain settings ("Allow
connections from network client") not to be applied.
