BugTraq ID: 11237
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Sep 22 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/11237
Summary:
Symantec Enterprise Firewall/VPN Appliance is affected by multiple
remote vulnerabilities.  These issues are due to a failure of the
application to handle exceptional conditions, a default configuration
issue exists as well.

An attacker can leverage a denial of service issue to cause the
affected appliance to stop responding, requiring a power off to bring
the device back to functionality.  A filter bypass issue allows an
attacker to bypass the filters on the 'tftpd', 'snmpd', and 'isakmp'
services.  An attacker can also read and write the community string of
the affected device by default, facilitating disclosure and altering
of the device's settings.
