inetd in Compaq Tru64 UNIX 5.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (network connection loss) by causing one of the services handled by inetd to core dump during startup, which causes inetd to stop accepting connections to all of its services. Multiple Cisco networking products contain a denial-of-service vulnerability. The inetd service on Compaq's Tru64 UNIX is vulnerable to a denial-of-service. There is an information integrity vulnerability in the SSH1 protocol that allows packets encrypted with a block cipher to be modified without notice. There is a remote integer overflow vulnerability in several implementations of the SSH1 protocol that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the SSH daemon, typically root. The program pgp4pine version 1.75.6 fails to properly identify expired keys when working with the Gnu Privacy Guard program (GnuPG). This failure may result in the clear-text transmission of senstive information when used with the PINE mail reading package. The SEDUM web server permits intruders to access files outside the web root. Secure Shell, or SSH, is an encrypted remote access protocol. SSH or code based on SSH is used by many systems all over the world and in a wide variety of commercial applications. An integer-overflow bug in the CRC32 compensation attack detection code may allow remote attackers to write values to arbitrary locations in memory. This would occur in situations where large SSH packets are recieved by either a client or server, and a 32 bit representation of the SSH packet length is assigned to a 16 bit integer. The difference in data representation in these situations will cause the 16 bit variable to be assigned to zero (or a really low value). As a result, future calls to malloc() as well as an index used to reference locations in memory can be corrupted by an attacker. This could occur in a manner that can be exploited to write certain numerical values to almost arbitrary locations in memory. **UPDATE**: There have been reports suggesting that exploitation of this vulnerability may be widespread. Since early september, independent, reliable sources have confirmed that this vulnerability is being exploited by attackers on the Internet. Security Focus does not currently have the exploit code being used, however this record will be updated if and when it becomes available. NOTE: Cisco 11000 Content Service Switch family is vulnerable to this issue. All WebNS releases prior, but excluding, versions: 4.01 B42s, 4.10 22s, 5.0 B11s, 5.01 B6s, are vulnerable. Secure Computing SafeWord Agent for SSH is reportedly prone to this issue, as it is based on a vulnerable version of SSH. ** NetScreen ScreenOS is not directly vulnerable to this issue, however the referenced exploit will cause devices using vulnerable versions of the software to stop functioning properly. This will result in a denial of service condition for NetScreen devices. This issue is in the Secure Command Shell (SCS) administrative interface, which is an implementation of SSHv1. SCS is not enabled on NetScreen devices by default. Cisco has reported that scanning for SSH vulnerabilities on affected devices will cause excessive CPU consumption. The condition is due to a failure of the Cisco SSH implementation to properly process large SSH packets. As many of these devices are critical infrastructure components, more serious network outages may occur. Cisco has released upgrades that will eliminate this vulnerability. An expired public key could cause GPG to fail the encryption of an outgoing message, without any error message or warning being delivered to the user. As a result, the user could transmit data, meant to be encrypted, as plaintext.

Medium Any vulnerability that provides information that has a high potential of giving system access to an intruder. Example: A misconfigured TFTP or vulnerable NIS server that allows an intruder to get the password file that could contain an account with a guessable password. Low Any vulnerability that provides information that potentially could lead to a compromise. Example: A finger that allows an intruder to find out who is online and potential accounts to attempt to crack passwords via brute force methods. ________ ISS is a leading global provider of security management solutions for e-business.

Buffer overflow in the text editor functionality in HP-UX 10.01 through 11.04 on HP9000 Series 700 and Series 800 allows local users to cause a denial of service ("system availability") via text editors such as (1) e, (2) ex, (3) vi, (4) edit, (5) view, and (6) vedit. A buffer overflow in the text editor on certain Hewlett-Packard systems could compromise system availability. Multiple Cisco networking products contain a denial-of-service vulnerability. There is an information integrity vulnerability in the SSH1 protocol that allows packets encrypted with a block cipher to be modified without notice. There is a remote integer overflow vulnerability in several implementations of the SSH1 protocol that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the SSH daemon, typically root. The program pgp4pine version 1.75.6 fails to properly identify expired keys when working with the Gnu Privacy Guard program (GnuPG). This failure may result in the clear-text transmission of senstive information when used with the PINE mail reading package. The SEDUM web server permits intruders to access files outside the web root. While addressing vulnerabilities described in http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/SSH-multiple-pub.html, a denial of service condition has been inadvertently introduced into firmware upgrades. Firmware for routers and switches (IOS), Catalyst 6000 switches running CatOS, Cisco PIX Firewall and Cisco 11000 Content Service Switch devices may be vulnerable. Cisco has reported that scanning for SSH vulnerabilities on affected devices will cause excessive CPU consumption. The condition is due to a failure of the Cisco SSH implementation to properly process large SSH packets. Repeated and concurrent attacks may result in a denial of device service. As many of these devices are critical infrastructure components, more serious network outages may occur. Cisco has released upgrades that will eliminate this vulnerability. HP-UX is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability

The IDEA cipher as implemented by SSH1 does not protect the final block of a message against modification, which allows remote attackers to modify the block without detection by changing its cyclic redundancy check (CRC) to match the modifications to the message. Multiple Cisco networking products contain a denial-of-service vulnerability. There is an information integrity vulnerability in the SSH1 protocol that allows packets encrypted with a block cipher to be modified without notice. There is a remote integer overflow vulnerability in several implementations of the SSH1 protocol that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the SSH daemon, typically root. The program pgp4pine version 1.75.6 fails to properly identify expired keys when working with the Gnu Privacy Guard program (GnuPG). This failure may result in the clear-text transmission of senstive information when used with the PINE mail reading package. The SEDUM web server permits intruders to access files outside the web root. Secure Shell, or SSH, is an encrypted remote access protocol. SSH or code based on SSH is used by many systems all over the world and in a wide variety of commercial applications. An integer-overflow bug in the CRC32 compensation attack detection code may allow remote attackers to write values to arbitrary locations in memory. This would occur in situations where large SSH packets are recieved by either a client or server, and a 32 bit representation of the SSH packet length is assigned to a 16 bit integer. The difference in data representation in these situations will cause the 16 bit variable to be assigned to zero (or a really low value). As a result, future calls to malloc() as well as an index used to reference locations in memory can be corrupted by an attacker. This could occur in a manner that can be exploited to write certain numerical values to almost arbitrary locations in memory. **UPDATE**: There have been reports suggesting that exploitation of this vulnerability may be widespread. Since early september, independent, reliable sources have confirmed that this vulnerability is being exploited by attackers on the Internet. Security Focus does not currently have the exploit code being used, however this record will be updated if and when it becomes available. NOTE: Cisco 11000 Content Service Switch family is vulnerable to this issue. All WebNS releases prior, but excluding, versions: 4.01 B42s, 4.10 22s, 5.0 B11s, 5.01 B6s, are vulnerable. Secure Computing SafeWord Agent for SSH is reportedly prone to this issue, as it is based on a vulnerable version of SSH. ** NetScreen ScreenOS is not directly vulnerable to this issue, however the referenced exploit will cause devices using vulnerable versions of the software to stop functioning properly. This will result in a denial of service condition for NetScreen devices. This issue is in the Secure Command Shell (SCS) administrative interface, which is an implementation of SSHv1. SCS is not enabled on NetScreen devices by default. Cisco has reported that scanning for SSH vulnerabilities on affected devices will cause excessive CPU consumption. The condition is due to a failure of the Cisco SSH implementation to properly process large SSH packets. As many of these devices are critical infrastructure components, more serious network outages may occur. Cisco has released upgrades that will eliminate this vulnerability. An expired public key could cause GPG to fail the encryption of an outgoing message, without any error message or warning being delivered to the user. As a result, the user could transmit data, meant to be encrypted, as plaintext. SSH is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability.

Unknown vulnerability in Sun StorEdge 6130 Arrays (SE6130) with serial numbers between 0451AWF00G and 0513AWF00J allows local users and remote attackers to delete data. Multiple Cisco networking products contain a denial-of-service vulnerability. There is an information integrity vulnerability in the SSH1 protocol that allows packets encrypted with a block cipher to be modified without notice. There is a remote integer overflow vulnerability in several implementations of the SSH1 protocol that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the SSH daemon, typically root. The program pgp4pine version 1.75.6 fails to properly identify expired keys when working with the Gnu Privacy Guard program (GnuPG). This failure may result in the clear-text transmission of senstive information when used with the PINE mail reading package. The SEDUM web server permits intruders to access files outside the web root. While addressing vulnerabilities described in http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/SSH-multiple-pub.html, a denial of service condition has been inadvertently introduced into firmware upgrades. Firmware for routers and switches (IOS), Catalyst 6000 switches running CatOS, Cisco PIX Firewall and Cisco 11000 Content Service Switch devices may be vulnerable. Cisco has reported that scanning for SSH vulnerabilities on affected devices will cause excessive CPU consumption. The condition is due to a failure of the Cisco SSH implementation to properly process large SSH packets. Repeated and concurrent attacks may result in a denial of device service. As many of these devices are critical infrastructure components, more serious network outages may occur. Cisco has released upgrades that will eliminate this vulnerability

Buffer overflow in CSAdmin module in CiscoSecure ACS Server 2.4(2) and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary commands via a large packet. Depending on the data entered, CiscoSecure ACS for Windows NT can be made to crash or arbitrary code execution can be made possible if an unusually long packet is sent to port 2002. If the application were to crash due to an oversized packet, the CSadmin Module would automatically restart after one minute in versions 2.3x and higher. Existing sessions would re-establish although they would need to be authenticated again. In prior versions, a restart is required in order to regain normal functionality

Buffer overflow in CiscoSecure ACS Server 2.4(2) and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary commands via a large TACACS+ packet. If a remote attacker is capable of sniffing or injecting traffic in between a server running CiscoSecure ACS for Windows NT and a TACACS+ client, CiscoSecure ACS for Windows NT can be made to crash if an oversized TACACS+ packet is sent to it. CiscoSecure ACS Server 2.4(2) and earlier versions have a buffer overflow vulnerability

CiscoSecure ACS Server 2.4(2) and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass LDAP authentication on the server if the LDAP server allows null passwords. There are certain Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) servers that allow users to have undefined passwords. Vulnerabilities exist in CiscoSecure ACS Server 2.4(2) and earlier versions

The mailguard feature in Cisco Secure PIX Firewall 5.2(2) and earlier does not properly restrict access to SMTP commands, which allows remote attackers to execute restricted commands by sending a DATA command before sending the restricted commands. Like other firewalls, the Cisco PIX Firewall implements technology that reads the contents of packets passing through it for application-level filtering. In the case of SMTP, it can be configured so only certain smtp commands can be allowed through (for example, dropping extra functionality, such as HELP or commands that could be a security concern, like EXPN or VRFY). When recieving messages, it allows all text through between "data" and "<CR><LF><CR><LF>.<CR><LF>", as this is where the body of the message would normally go and there could be words in it that are smtp commands which shouldn't be filtered. Due to the nature of SMTP and flaws in exceptional condition handling of PIX, it is reportedly possible to evade the smtp command restrictions by tricking the firewall into thinking the body of the message is being sent when it isn't. During communication with an smtp server, if the "data" command is sent before the more important information is sent, such as "rcpt to", the smtp server will return error 503, saying that rcpt was required. The firewall, however, thinks everything is alright and will let everything through until recieving "<CR><LF><CR><LF>.<CR><LF>". It is then possible for the attacker to do whatever he wishes on the email server. An old vulnerability that allowed for bypassing of SMTP content filtering has been re-introduced into PIX firmware. This vulnerability is archived in the SecurityFocus vulnerability database as Bugtraq ID: 1698

WinCOM LPD 1.00.90 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a large number of LPD options to the LPD port (515). If a user sends continuous LPD requests to the serivce on default port 515, the program will consume all available CPU usage. A restart of the service is required in order to gain normal functionality. WinCOM LPD 1.00.90 is vulnerable

VMware Tools in VMware Workstation 6.5.x before 6.5.4 build 246459; VMware Player 2.5.x before 2.5.4 build 246459; VMware ACE 2.5.x before 2.5.4 build 246459; VMware Server 2.x before 2.0.2 build 203138; VMware Fusion 2.x before 2.0.6 build 246742; VMware ESXi 3.5 and 4.0; and VMware ESX 2.5.5, 3.0.3, 3.5, and 4.0 does not properly access libraries, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking a Windows guest OS user into clicking on a file that is stored on a network share. Some applications for Microsoft Windows may use unsafe methods for determining how to load DLLs. As a result, these applications can be forced to load a DLL from an attacker-controlled source rather than a trusted location. Windows Program DLL There is an attackable vulnerability in reading. Dynamic link Library (DLL) Is a software component that is loaded at run time, not at program compile time. The program is LoadLibrary() And LoadLibraryEx() Using DLL Is read. Read DLL If no path is specified, specific directories are searched in order and found first. DLL Is loaded. Since this directory group includes the current directory of the process, the directory that can be operated by the attacker is set as the current directory. LoadLibrary() If is called, attack code may be executed. This issue can occur when browsing files located in directories that an attacker can manipulate. Read DLL The name depends on the program. DLL Read Windows The entire program may be affected. " Opera Software "and" Adobe Vulnerability information on " : Mitsui Bussan Secure Direction Co., Ltd. Takashi Yoshikawa MrA remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with the authority to execute the program. Attacker crafted DLL The USB Placing it on a drive or network drive may cause an attack. VMWare is a virtual PC software that allows two or more Windows, DOS, and LINUX systems to run simultaneously on a single machine. The VMWare Tools package used in VMWare products does not properly access the function library. When a program executes under Microsoft Windows, it may require additional code stored in DLL library files. A weakness exists in the algorithm used to locate these files. The search algorithm used to locate DLL files specifies that the current working directory is checked before the System folders. If a trojaned DLL can be inserted into the system in an arbitrary location, and a predictable executable called with the same current working directory, the trojaned DLL may be loaded and executed. This may occur when a data file is accessed through the 'Run' function, or double clicked in Windows Explorer. This has been reported to occur with the 'riched20.dll' and 'msi.dll' DLL files and some Microsoft Office applications, including WordPad. This behavior has also been reported for files loaded from UNC shares, or directly from FTP servers. An attacker can exploit this issue by enticing a user to open a malicious file from a network share. The issue can be exploited on Windows guest operating systems Successful exploits will allow attackers to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. This issue affects the following products: Workstation Player ACE Server Fusion ESX ESXi NOTE: This issue was previously covered in BID 39345 (VMware Hosted Products VMSA-2010-0007 Multiple Remote and Local Vulnerabilities), but has been given its own record to better document it. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- VMware Security Advisory Advisory ID: VMSA-2010-0007 Synopsis: VMware hosted products, vCenter Server and ESX patches resolve multiple security issues Issue date: 2010-04-09 Updated on: 2010-04-09 (initial release of advisory) CVE numbers: CVE-2010-1142 CVE-2010-1140 CVE-2009-2042 CVE-2009-1564 CVE-2009-1565 CVE-2009-3732 CVE-2009-3707 CVE-2010-1138 CVE-2010-1139 CVE-2010-1141 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. 2.

Exploitation of this issue may lead to arbitrary code execution on the system where VMrc is installed. Code execution would be at the privilege level of the user. VMrc is present on a system if the VMrc browser plug-in has been installed. This plug-in is required when using the console feature in WebAccess. Installation of the plug-in follows after visiting the console tab in WebAccess and choosing "Install plug-in". The plug- in can only be installed on Internet Explorer and Firefox. Under the following two conditions your version of VMrc is likely to be affected: - the VMrc plug-in was obtained from vCenter 4.0 or from ESX 4.0 without patch ESX400-200911223-UG and - VMrc is installed on a Windows-based system The following steps allow you to determine if you have an affected version of VMrc installed: - Locate the VMrc executable vmware-vmrc.exe on your Windows-based system - Right click and go to Properties - Go to the tab "Versions" - Click "File Version" in the "Item Name" window - If the "Value" window shows "e.x.p build-158248", the version of VMrc is affected Remediation of this issue on Windows-based systems requires the following steps (Linux-based systems are not affected): - Uninstall affected versions of VMrc from the systems where the VMrc plug-in has been installed (use the Windows Add/Remove Programs interface) - Install vCenter 4.0 Update 1 or install the ESX 4.0 patch ESX400-200911223-UG - Login into vCenter 4.0 Update 1 or ESX 4.0 with patch ESX400-200911223-UG using WebAccess on the system where the VMrc needs to be re-installed - Re-install VMrc by going to the console tab in WebAccess. The Console tab is selectable after selecting a virtual machine. Note: the VMrc plug-in for Firefox on Windows-based operating systems is no longer compatible after the above remediation steps. Users are advised to use the Internet Explorer VMrc plug-in. VMware would like to thank Alexey Sintsov from Digital Security Research Group for reporting this issue to us. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2009-3732 to this issue. g.

Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details. Impact ====== Local users may be able to gain escalated privileges, cause a Denial of Service, or gain sensitive information. A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code, or a Denial of Service. Remote attackers also may be able to spoof DNS traffic, read arbitrary files, or inject arbitrary web script to the VMware Server Console. Furthermore, guest OS users may be able to execute arbitrary code on the host OS, gain escalated privileges on the guest OS, or cause a Denial of Service (crash the host OS). Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Gentoo discontinued support for VMware Workstation. We recommend that users unmerge VMware Server: # emerge --unmerge "app-emulation/vmware-server" References ========== [ 1 ] CVE-2007-5269 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-5269 [ 2 ] CVE-2007-5503 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-5503 [ 3 ] CVE-2007-5671 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-5671 [ 4 ] CVE-2008-0967 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-0967 [ 5 ] CVE-2008-1340 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1340 [ 6 ] CVE-2008-1361 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1361 [ 7 ] CVE-2008-1362 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1362 [ 8 ] CVE-2008-1363 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1363 [ 9 ] CVE-2008-1364 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1364 [ 10 ] CVE-2008-1392 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1392 [ 11 ] CVE-2008-1447 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1447 [ 12 ] CVE-2008-1806 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1806 [ 13 ] CVE-2008-1807 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1807 [ 14 ] CVE-2008-1808 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-1808 [ 15 ] CVE-2008-2098 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-2098 [ 16 ] CVE-2008-2100 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-2100 [ 17 ] CVE-2008-2101 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-2101 [ 18 ] CVE-2008-4915 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-4915 [ 19 ] CVE-2008-4916 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-4916 [ 20 ] CVE-2008-4917 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-4917 [ 21 ] CVE-2009-0040 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-0040 [ 22 ] CVE-2009-0909 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-0909 [ 23 ] CVE-2009-0910 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-0910 [ 24 ] CVE-2009-1244 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-1244 [ 25 ] CVE-2009-2267 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-2267 [ 26 ] CVE-2009-3707 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-3707 [ 27 ] CVE-2009-3732 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-3732 [ 28 ] CVE-2009-3733 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-3733 [ 29 ] CVE-2009-4811 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-4811 [ 30 ] CVE-2010-1137 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1137 [ 31 ] CVE-2010-1138 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1138 [ 32 ] CVE-2010-1139 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1139 [ 33 ] CVE-2010-1140 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1140 [ 34 ] CVE-2010-1141 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1141 [ 35 ] CVE-2010-1142 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1142 [ 36 ] CVE-2010-1143 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1143 [ 37 ] CVE-2011-3868 http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-3868 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-201209-25.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users' machines is of utmost importance to us.

Intel Express 500 series switches allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a malformed ICMP packet, which causes the CPU to crash. The malformed packet can be sent locally or remotely and can be spoofed. In the event that the switch receives the malformed ICMP packet, it will continue to operate as a switch, however, it will lose all routing functionality and will not pick up on new connections

Vulnerability in Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service in IIS by sending it a series of malformed requests which cause INETINFO.EXE to fail, aka the "Invalid URL" vulnerability. IIS 4.0 is subject to a denial of service due to the mishandling of URL requests. This issue is a result of a flaw in Windows NT 4.0. If a remote user requests a specifically malformed URL, an invalid memory request is made by inetinfo.exe. The end result is that all system resources are used until inetinfo.exe is eventually automatically shut down by NT. A restart of the service is required in order to gain normal functionality

The web server in IPSWITCH IMail 6.04 and earlier allows remote attackers to read and delete arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) attack. IPSWITCH ships a product titled IMail, an email server for usage on NT servers serving clients their mail via a web interface. To this end the IMail server provides a web server typically running on port 8383 for it's end users to access. Via this interface users may read and send mail, as well as mail with file attachments. Certain versions of IMail do not perform proper access validation however resulting in users being able to attach files resident on the server. The net result of this is users may attach files on the server to which they should have no access. This access is limited to the user privileges which the server is being run as, typically SYSTEM. It should be noted that once a user attachs the files in question the server deletes them

Intel Express 500 series switches allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a malformed IP packet. In order to regain functionality, the power must be disconnected and reconnected - the reset switch will not be operational. Vulnerabilities exist in the Intel Express 500 serial switch

admin.php3 in PHP-Nuke does not properly verify the PHP-Nuke administrator password, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges by requesting a URL that does not specify the aid or pwd parameter. PHP-Nuke is a website creation/maintainence tool written in PHP3. It is possible to elevate priviliges in this system from normal user to administrator due to a flaw in authentication code. The problem occurs here: $aid = variable holding author name, pwd = author password $result=mysql_query("select pwd from authors where aid='$aid'"); if(!$result) { echo "Selection from database failed!"; exit; } else { list($pass)=mysql_fetch_row($result); if($pass == $pwd) { $admintest = 1; } } First off, the code checks to make sure the query passed to mysql_query is legal. There are no checks to see whether any rows are returned (whether any authors match $aid..). Then, the password given is compared to the result of the above query. If the author doesn't match, mysql_fetch_row returns FALSE. This is where the problem occurs. A NULL string is logically equal to FALSE and thus if an empty string is supplied as password, the condition tested for above (the if($pass == $pwd)) is met and admintest is set to 1 (TRUE). The user is then able to perform all administrative functions

Vulnerabilities in IIS 4.0 and 5.0 do not properly protect against cross-site scripting (CSS) attacks. They allow a malicious web site operator to embed scripts in a link to a trusted site, which are returned without quoting in an error message back to the client. The client then executes those scripts in the same context as the trusted site, aka the "IIS Cross-Site Scripting" vulnerabilities. Microsoft IIS Has text added shtml A vulnerability exists in which an executable script can be included in an error message when a request for a file in the format is received.An arbitrary script may be executed on the user's browser. If FrontPage Server Extensions 1.2 is installed on an IIS server, IIS may return content specified by a malicious third party back to a client through the use of specially formed links. If additional text is appended to a request for shtml.dll, the server will generate an error including that text. This becomes an issue especially if the server specified in the hostile URL is a trusted site, as content from that site may then be granted a higher privilege level than usual. For example, consider a link off of a page from a hostile website: &lt;a href="http://TrustedServer/_vti_bin/shtml.dll/&lt;script&gt;Hostile Code Here&lt;/script&gt;"&gt;http://TrustedServer&lt;/a&gt;. If a user clicks on the link specified above, the script will get passed in the http request from the client to TrustedSite. TrustedSite will then return the script as part of the error message. The client, receiving the error page containing the script, will then execute it and assign to it all rights granted to content from TrustedSite. Update (November 2, 2000): A new variant of this vulnerability has been discovered and is addressed in the re-release of patches described in Microsoft Security Bulletin (MS00-060). Please see 'Solution' for the patches

Ipswitch Imail 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a large number of connections in which a long Host: header is sent, which causes a thread to crash. IPSwitch IMail is an e-mail server which provides WWW (HTTP) E-mail services. By default this web service resides on port 8181 or 8383. Sending an HTTP request with an extremely long "HOST" field multiple times can cause the system hosting the service to become unresponsive. Each long request "kills" a thread without freeing up the memory used by it. By repeating this request, the system's resources can be used up completely. Ipswitch Imail 6.0 is vulnerable

Check Point Firewall-1 session agent 3.0 through 4.1 generates different error messages for invalid user names versus invalid passwords, which allows remote attackers to determine valid usernames and guess a password via a brute force attack. A vulnerability exists in all versions of the Check Point Session Agent, part of Firewall-1. Session Agent works in such a way that the firewall will establish a connection back to the client machine. Upon doing so, it will prompt for a username, and if the username exists, a password. Upon failure, it will reprompt indefinitely. This allows for a simple brute force attack against the username and password

IIS 4.0 and 5.0 does not properly restrict access to certain types of files when their parent folders have less restrictive permissions, which could allow remote attackers to bypass access restrictions to some files, aka the "File Permission Canonicalization" vulnerability. Due to an error in canonicalization affecting CGI scripts and ISAPI extensions, incorrect permissions may be set for a given file on a web server following a malformed HTTP request. This will allow a user to perform actions on CGI or ISAPI-mapped files, including reading or executing, which would normally be denied. This does not apply to files in virtual folders.The correct file is located, but is concluded to be in a location different from its actual folder. Depending on the exact nature of the malformed URL, the file may inherit the permissions of any parent folder in the file's path

Cisco Gigabit Switch Routers (GSR) with Fast Ethernet / Gigabit Ethernet cards, from IOS versions 11.2(15)GS1A up to 11.2(19)GS0.2 and some versions of 12.0, do not properly handle line card failures, which allows remote attackers to bypass ACLs or force the interface to stop forwarding packets. This could lead to exploitation of vulnerabilities that would normally have been protected by the access control lists. It may also be possible for an attacker to cause an interface on the target GSR to stop forwarding packets, resulting in a denial of service. The evasion of ACLs has to do with optimizations in handling of various packet types and occurs only on the affected interfaces. All versions of IOS greater than 11.2 on GSRs are assumed to be vulnerable
