Remote: Yes
Date Published: Jul 19 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10751
Summary:
An SQL injection vulnerability is identified in the application that
may allow attackers to pass malicious input to database queries,
resulting in the modification of query logic or other attacks.

This vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of
user-supplied input.  It may be possible for a remote user to inject
arbitrary SQL queries into the underlying database used by the
application. This could permit remote attackers to pass malicious
input to database queries, resulting in modification of query logic or
other attacks.

Successful exploitation could result in compromise of the application,
disclosure or modification of data or may permit an attacker to
exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.

This issue is reported to exist in PlaySMS 0.6.  Other versions may be
affected as well.

Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10765
Summary:
Several Lexmark network printers that contain a built-in web server
have been reported to contain a buffer overflow vulnerability.

This vulnerability is reported to exist in the printers HTTP header
parsing code.

The vulnerability can be exploited to crash the printers web server,
denying service to legitimate users. The possibility to execute
arbitrary code on the printer may also be present.

Model T522 was reported to be affected by this vulnerability. Due to
code sharing across products, other printer models are likely affected
as well. It is reported that some Dell branded printers also use the
same firmware, implying that other vendors may also be vulnerable.

This BID will be updated with further vendor, model, and version
information as new information is disclosed.

It is conjectured that this BID is related to BID 1290. Lexmark
printers may use a vulnerable version of the Allegro RomPager embedded
web server.

Summary:
The Linux kernel is reported prone to an unspecified local denial of
service vulnerability.  It is reported that issue only affects ia64
systems.  A local attacker can exploit this issue by dereferencing a
NULL pointer and causing a kernel panic.  Successful exploitation will
lead to a denial of service condition in a vulnerable computer.

No further details are available at this time.  This issue will be
updated as more information becomes available.

Samba Web Administration Tool Base64 Decoder Buffer Overflow...
BugTraq ID: 10780
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Jul 22 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10780
Summary:
It has been reported that Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT) is
affected by a base64 decoder buffer overflow vulnerability. This issue
is due to a failure of the application to properly validate buffer
boundaries when copying user-supplied input into a finite buffer.

Successful exploitation of this issue will allow a remote,
unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected
computer with the privileges of the affected process; Samba typically
runs with superuser privileges.

Samba Filename Mangling Method Buffer Overrun Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 10781
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Jul 22 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10781
Summary:
Samba is reported prone to an undisclosed buffer overrun
vulnerability, the buffer overrun is reported to exist when Samba is
handling file name mangling with the "hash" method.

It is conjectured that this vulnerability may present itself when the
affected server handles a filename that is sufficient to trigger the
vulnerability. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker may require
sufficient access so that they may write a file to a published samba
share.

It is reported that the vulnerability does not exist in default Samba
configurations; by default, Samba is configured to employ "hash2" name
mangling. The "hash2" method is not vulnerable.

This vulnerability is reported to affect Samba version 3.0.0 and
later.

Nessus Insecure Temporary File Creation Vulnerabiliry
BugTraq ID: 10784
Remote: No
Date Published: Jul 22 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10784
Summary:
Nessus is reported to be vulnerable to an insecure temporary file
creation vulnerability.

This vulnerability presents itself in the 'nessus-adduser'
script. This script is used to add users to the Nessus
application. These users are independent of the system user database,
and are used to define access roles and limits in the application.

When creating new users, Nessus insecurely creates a temporary file.

A non-privileged user with interactive access could overwrite any file
on the system with superuser privileges. The attacker does not control
the data being written, just the location of the file.

An attacker could also exploit this issue to modify the rules assigned
to the new nessus user, allowing or denying access to scan hosts
within Nessus.

Versions of 2.0.x prior to 2.0.12 and the experimental version 2.1.0
are reported to be vulnerable to this issue.
