VULNERABILITY DETAILS |
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Novell GroupWise. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the gwwww1.dll module responsible for parsing VCALENDAR data within e-mail messages. When the code encounters a RRULE variable it allocates memory for 0x800 bytes for the variable's contents, a list of numbers. It then proceeds to copy the numbers from the request while there are numbers to parse. By specifying a large amount of comma-separated values within an RRULE, an attacker can overflow the buffer and execute arbitrary code under the context of the SYSTEM user. |
ADDITIONAL DETAILS |
Linux - http://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=04oMMaiI9nI~ The GroupWise Internet Agent (GWIA) has multiple vulnerabilities in the way that it parses variables within a received VCALENDAR message, which could potentially allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of GWIA. |
