Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In March 2008 (Denial of service)

The WPAR system call implementation in the kernel in IBM AIX 6.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service via unknown calls that trigger "undefined behavior."

The kernel in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 does not properly handle resizing JFS2 filesystems on concurrent volume groups spread across multiple nodes, which allows local users of one node to cause a denial of service (remote node crash) by using chfs or lreducelv to reduce a filesystem's size.

The "decode as" feature in packet-bssap.c in the SCCP dissector in Wireshark (formerly Ethereal) 0.99.6 through 0.99.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet.

The LDAP dissector in Wireshark (formerly Ethereal) 0.99.2 through 0.99.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-5740.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Wireshark (formerly Ethereal) 0.99.5 through 0.99.8 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet to the (1) X.509sat or (2) Roofnet dissectors. NOTE: Vector 2 might also lead to a hang.

servlet/MIMEReceiveServlet in the web controller for Mitsubishi Electric GB-50 and GB-50A air-conditioning control systems allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (air-conditioning outage) via an XML document containing a setRequest command.

Perlbal before 1.70, when buffered upload is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a zero-byte chunked upload.

The connection_state_machine function (connections.c) in lighttpd 1.4.19 and earlier, and 1.5.x before 1.5.0, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (active SSL connection loss) by triggering an SSL error, such as disconnecting before a download has finished, which causes all active SSL connections to be lost.

GnuPG (gpg) 1.4.8 and 2.0.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted duplicate keys that are imported from key servers, which triggers "memory corruption around deduplication of user IDs."

arch/s390/kernel/ptrace.c in Linux kernel 2.6.9, and other versions before 2.6.27-rc6, on s390 platforms allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via the user-area-padding test from the ptrace testsuite in 31-bit mode, which triggers an invalid dereference.

The send_user_mode function in s_user.c in (1) Undernet ircu 2.10.12.12 and earlier, (2) snircd 1.3.4 and earlier, and unspecified other ircu derivatives allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a malformed MODE command.

Integer overflow in the MP4_ReadBox_rdrf function in libmp4.c for VLC 0.8.6e allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted MP4 RDRF box that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-0984.

rpc.metad in Sun Solaris 10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a malformed RPC request.

Home FTP Server 1.4.5.89 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by opening a FTP passive mode connection, then closing the original FTP connection. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the ListCtrl ActiveX Control (ListCtrl.ocx), as used in multiple CA products including BrightStor ARCserve Backup R11.5, Desktop Management Suite r11.1 through r11.2, and Unicenter products r11.1 through r11.2, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (crash) via a long argument to the AddColumn method.

The cpoint.sys driver in Panda Internet Security 2008 and Antivirus+ Firewall 2008 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash or kernel panic), overwrite memory, or execute arbitrary code via a crafted IOCTL request that triggers an out-of-bounds write of kernel memory.

Secure Internet Live Conferencing (SILC) Server before 1.1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a NEW_CLIENT packet without a nickname.

Unspecified vulnerability in multiple F-Secure anti-virus products, including Internet Security 2006 through 2008, Anti-Virus 2006 through 2008, and others, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (hang or crash) via a malformed archive that triggers an unhandled exception, as demonstrated by the PROTOS GENOME test suite for Archive Formats.

The PXE Server (pxesrv.exe) in Acronis Snap Deploy 2.0.0.1076 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an incomplete TFTP request, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

MG-SOFT Net Inspector 6.5.0.828 and earlier for Windows allows remote attackers to cause a (1) denial of service (exception and crash) via a UDP packet to the SNMP Trap Service (MgWTrap3.exe) or (2) denial of service (device freeze or memory consumption) via a malformed request to the Net Inspector Server (niengine).

Check Point VPN-1 Power/UTM, with NGX R60 through R65 and NG AI R55 software, allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (site-to-site VPN tunnel outage), and possibly intercept network traffic, by configuring the local RFC1918 IP address to be the same as one of this tunnel's endpoint RFC1918 IP addresses, and then using SecuRemote to connect to a network interface at the other endpoint.

Integer overflow in PHP 5.2.5 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly have unspecified other impact via a printf format parameter with a large width specifier, related to the php_sprintf_appendstring function in formatted_print.c and probably other functions for formatted strings (aka *printf functions).

bzlib.c in bzip2 before 1.0.5 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file that triggers a buffer over-read, as demonstrated by the PROTOS GENOME test suite for Archive Formats.

Trend Micro OfficeScan Corporate Edition 8.0 Patch 2 build 1189 and earlier, and 7.3 Patch 3 build 1314 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process consumption) via (1) an HTTP request without a Content-Length header or (2) invalid characters in unspecified CGI arguments, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

Stack-based buffer overflow in Trend Micro OfficeScan Corporate Edition 8.0 Patch 2 build 1189 and earlier, and 7.3 Patch 3 build 1314 and earlier, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (crash) via a long encrypted password, which triggers the overflow in (1) cgiChkMasterPwd.exe, (2) policyserver.exe as reachable through cgiABLogon.exe, and other vectors.
