Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In December 2009 (Bypass)

Jax Guestbook 3.5.0 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and modify administrator settings via a direct request to admin/guestbook.admin.php.

The (1) CHAP and (2) MS-CHAP-V2 authentication capabilities in the PPP Access Concentrator (PPPAC) function in Internet Initiative Japan SEIL/B1 firmware 1.00 through 2.52 use the same challenge for each authentication attempt, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a replay attack.

The Staging Webservice ("sitecore modules/staging/service/api.asmx") in Sitecore Staging Module 5.4.0 rev.080625 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and (1) upload files, (2) download files, (3) list directories, and (4) clear the server cache via crafted SOAP requests with arbitrary Username and Password values, possibly related to a direct request.

The Kide Shoutbox (com_kide) component 0.4.6 for Joomla! does not properly perform authentication, which allows remote attackers to post messages with an arbitrary account name via an insertar action to index.php. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.

Session fixation vulnerability in html/Elements/SetupSessionCookie in Best Practical Solutions RT 3.0.0 through 3.6.9 and 3.8.x through 3.8.5 allows remote attackers to hijack web sessions by setting the session identifier via a manipulation that leverages "HTTP access to the RT server," a related issue to CVE-2009-3585.

GNU GRand Unified Bootloader (GRUB) 2 1.97 only compares the submitted portion of a password with the actual password, which makes it easier for physically proximate attackers to conduct brute force attacks and bypass authentication by submitting a password whose length is 1.

Session fixation vulnerability in html/Elements/SetupSessionCookie in Best Practical Solutions RT 3.0.0 through 3.6.9 and 3.8.x through 3.8.5 allows remote attackers to hijack web sessions by setting the session identifier via a manipulation that leverages a second web server within the same domain.

VRTSweb.exe in VRTSweb in Symantec Backup Exec Continuous Protection Server (CPS) 11d, 12.0, and 12.5; Veritas NetBackup Operations Manager (NOM) 6.0 GA through 6.5.5; Veritas Backup Reporter (VBR) 6.0 GA through 6.6; Veritas Storage Foundation (SF) 3.5; Veritas Storage Foundation for Windows High Availability (SFWHA) 4.3MP2, 5.0, 5.0RP1a, 5.0RP2, 5.1, and 5.1AP1; Veritas Storage Foundation for High Availability (SFHA) 3.5; Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle (SFO) 4.1, 5.0, and 5.0.1; Veritas Storage Foundation for DB2 4.1 and 5.0; Veritas Storage Foundation for Sybase 4.1 and 5.0; Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle Real Application Cluster (SFRAC) 3.5, 4.0, 4.1, and 5.0; Veritas Storage Foundation Manager (SFM) 1.0, 1.0 MP1, 1.1, 1.1.1Ux, 1.1.1Win, and 2.0; Veritas Cluster Server (VCS) 3.5, 4.0, 4.1, and 5.0; Veritas Cluster Server One (VCSOne) 2.0, 2.0.1, and 2.0.2; Veritas Application Director (VAD) 1.1 and 1.1 Platform Expansion; Veritas Cluster Server Management Console (VCSMC) 5.1, 5.5, and 5.5.1; Veritas Storage Foundation Cluster File System (SFCFS) 3.5, 4.0, 4.1, and 5.0; Veritas Storage Foundation Cluster File System for Oracle RAC (SFCFS RAC) 5.0; Veritas Command Central Storage (CCS) 4.x, 5.0, and 5.1; Veritas Command Central Enterprise Reporter (CC-ER) 5.0 GA, 5.0 MP1, 5.0 MP1RP1, and 5.1; Veritas Command Central Storage Change Manager (CC-SCM) 5.0 and 5.1; and Veritas MicroMeasure 5.0 does not properly validate authentication requests, which allows remote attackers to trigger the unpacking of a WAR archive, and execute arbitrary code in the contained files, via crafted data to TCP port 14300.

The Internet Authentication Service (IAS) in Microsoft Windows Vista SP2 and Server 2008 SP2 does not properly validate MS-CHAP v2 Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP) authentication requests, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted structures in a malformed request, aka "Internet Authentication Service Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
