    II. MICROSOFT VULNERABILITY SUMMARY
    -----------------------------------
    1. Rit Research Labs The Bat! PGP Message Memory Writing Vulner...
    BugTraq ID: 9433
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 16 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9433
    Summary:
    The Bat! is a commercially-available mail user agent, distributed and
    maintained by Rit Research Labs. It is available for the Microsoft Windows
    platform.

    It has been reported that there is an issue with the way The Bat! handles
    certain malformed PGP signed messages. PGP support is configured by
    default.

    The issue exists when The Bat! processes email messages containing PGP
    signatures with multiple recursively included parts. Specially
    constructed malformed signatures could allow The Bat! to read and write to
    unallocated regions of memory. This could potentially allow for execution
    of arbitrary attacker-supplied code.

    It is important to note that since The Bat! contains its own exception
    handler, the application will not crash when processing messages
    containing these malformed PGP signatures.

    This issue was reported to affect The Bat! 2.01. The vendor has reported
    that the issue could not be reproduced on The Bat! 2.03 beta and that 2.02
    CE is probably not vulnerable. The Bat! versions 1.x are not vulnerable
    to this issue.

    2. XtremeASP PhotoGallery Adminlogin.ASP SQL Injection Vulnerab...
    BugTraq ID: 9438
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 16 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9438
    Summary:
    XtremeASP PhotoGallery is a web-based picture gallery script. It is
    implemented in ASP and available for Microsoft Windows platforms.
    XtremeASP PhotoGallery is back-ended by a MySQL database.

    XtremeASP PhotoGallery is prone to an SQL injection vulnerability. The
    issue is reported to exist in 'adminlogin.asp', which does not
    sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input for username and password values
    before including it in SQL queries. 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 photo gallery,
    disclosure or modification of data or may permit an attacker to exploit
    vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.

    3. Legato NetWorker NSR_Shutdown Script Temporary File Symlink ...
    BugTraq ID: 9446
    Remote: No
    Date Published: Jan 19 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9446
    Summary:
    Legato NetWorker is a server package designed to help share data, media
    and backup processes across a heterogeneous network. The Legato NetWorker
    server will run on a number of Unix variants, as well as Microsoft Windows
    NT/2000 systems.

    Legato NetWorker has been reported prone to a Symbolic link vulnerability.
    The issue presents itself, because the NetWorker script "nsr_shutdown"
    creates temporary files in an insecure manner. Specifically, when the
    "nsr_shutdown" script is invoked a temporary file "nsrsh$$" is created,
    where "$$" represents the current ID of the running process. To exploit
    this issue, a local attacker may create many symbolic links in the "tmp"
    directory with incremental values representing the "$$" part of the
    filename, each of these links will point to an arbitrary file that the
    attacker wishes to target. When the vulnerable script is invoked,
    operations that were supposed for the temporary file will be carried out
    on the file that is linked by the malicious symbolic link.

    An attacker may exploit this issue to corrupt arbitrary files. This
    corruption may potentially result in the elevation of privileges, or in a
    system wide denial of service.

    It has been reported that a user will require root privileges to invoke
    the affected script; this may magnify the impact of this vulnerability.

    It should be noted that although this vulnerability has been reported to
    affect NetWorker version 6.0, other versions might also be affected.

    4. Invision Power Board Index.php Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerab...
    BugTraq ID: 9447
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 19 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9447
    Summary:
    Invision Power Board is web forum software. It is implemented in PHP and
    is available for Unix and Linux variants and Microsoft Windows operating
    systems.

    A vulnerability has been reported to exist in Invision Power Board that
    may allow a remote user to launch cross-site scripting attacks.

    The issue is reported to exist due to improper sanitizing of user-supplied
    data. It has been reported that HTML and script code may be parsed via the
    'act' URI parameter of 'Index.php' script. This vulnerability makes it
    possible for an attacker to construct a malicious link containing HTML or
    script code that may be rendered in a user's browser upon visiting that
    link. This attack would occur in the security context of the site.

    Successful exploitation of this attack may allow an attacker to steal
    cookie-based authentication credentials. Other attacks are also possible.

    All versions of Invision Power Board have been reported to be vulnerable
    to this issue.

    5. YABB SE SSI.PHP ID_MEMBER SQL Injection Vulnerability
    BugTraq ID: 9449
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 19 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9449
    Summary:
    YaBB SE is a freely available, open source port of Yet Another Bulletin
    Board (YaBB). It is available for Unix, Linux, and Microsoft Operating
    Systems.

    A problem with YaBB SE could make it possible for a remote user to launch
    SQL injection attacks.

    It has been reported that a problem exists in the SSI.php script
    distributed as part of YaBB SE. Due to insufficient sanitizing of the
    user-supplied ID_MEMBER URI parameter, it is possible for a remote user to
    inject arbitrary SQL queries into the database used by YaBB SE. 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 YaBB SE,
    disclosure or modification of data or may permit an attacker to exploit
    vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.

    6. GoAhead WebServer Directory Management Policy Bypass Vulnera...
    BugTraq ID: 9450
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 19 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9450
    Summary:
    GoAhead WebServer is an embedded web server implementation that is
    available for a number of operating systems, including Microsoft Windows
    and Unix/Linux derivatives.

    GoAhead WebServer allows users to configure a policy for how requests for
    resources in certain directories are handled, such as defining default
    actions for resources in cgi-bin or other directories. This is handled
    internally via the websUrlHandlerRequest() server function. GoAhead
    WebServer is prone to a vulnerability that may permit remote attackers to
    bypass directory management policy.

    It is reported that certain syntax may be used in HTTP GET requests to
    bypass the policy for how certain requests should be handled, for example,
    a script that should be interpreted may be downloaded by the attacker
    instead. The following example requests are reported to reproduce this
    behavior:

    GET cgi-bin/cgitest.c HTTP/1.0
    GET \cgi-bin/cgitest.c HTTP/1.0
    GET %5ccgi-bin/cgitest.c HTTP/1.0

    By omitting the initial forward-slash (/) or substituting a back-slash (/)
    for the initial forward-slash, it is possible to bypass directory
    management policy. A URL-encoded back-slash (%5c) at the beginning of the
    request may also bypass the policy. Other variations also exist.

    This could allow for unauthorized access to resources hosted on the
    server, likely resulting in disclosure of sensitive information such as
    script source code. The exact consequences will depend on what sort of
    directory management policy is in place and also the nature of information
    included in scripts or other sensitive resources hosted on the server.

    7. GoAhead WebServer Post Content-Length Remote Resource Consum...
    BugTraq ID: 9452
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 19 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9452
    Summary:
    GoAhead WebServer is an embedded web server implementation that is
    available for a number of operating systems, including Microsoft Windows
    and Unix/Linux derivatives.

    A vulnerability in the handling of unusual HTTP requests and
    content-length sizes may cause a vulnerable GoAhead WebServer to become
    unstable. Because of this, a remote attacker may be able consume
    excessive resources on the underlying host, resulting in a denial of
    service condition.

    The problem is in the handling of remote POST requests. By specifying a
    content-length of a specific size in a POST request, and sending data of a
    lesser size then breaking the connection, it is possible to send the
    service into an infinite loop. The program does not sufficiently handle
    the condition of a broken connection, and can consume excessive system
    resources, potentially taking down the system with the service.

    8. WebTrends Reporting Center Management Interface Path Disclos...
    BugTraq ID: 9460
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 20 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9460
    Summary:
    WebTrends Reporting Center is used to organize and present usage
    information for multiple server web environments. Reporting Center is
    available for Microsoft Windows, Linux and Solaris.

    The WebTrends Reporting Center management interface discloses installation
    path information when a non-existent resource is requested. The
    management interface is accessible via HTTP on TCP port 1099. This issue
    exists in the 'viewreport.pl' script included with the interface and may
    be triggering by specifying a non-existent ID for the 'profileid'
    parameter. The absolute physical path of the software installation will
    be disclosed in the error response to such a request. This information
    may permit an attacker to enumerate the layout of the underlying file
    system of the host.

    This issue was reported for version 6.1a of the software running on
    Microsoft Windows. Other platforms and versions may also be affected.

    9. 2Wire HomePortal Series Directory Traversal Vulnerability
    BugTraq ID: 9463
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 20 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9463
    Summary:
    2Wire HomePortal Series is a set of gateway servers designed for home
    users. HomePortal Series supports Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OS
    operating systems.

    A vulnerability has been alleged to exist in the software that may allow a
    remote attacker to access information outside the server root directory.
    The problem exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data
    through the 'return' parameter in the 'wralogin' authentication form that
    is accessed through the HTTPS (SSL) interface. The issue may allow a
    remote attacker to traverse outside the server root directory by using
    '../' character sequences.

    Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker
    to gain access to sensitive information that may be used to launch further
    attacks against a vulnerable system.

    All versions of 2Wire HomePortal Series have been reported to be
    vulnerable to this issue.

    10. Microsoft Windows Samba File Sharing Resource Exhaustion Vul...
    BugTraq ID: 9467
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 21 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9467
    Summary:
    A vulnerability has been identified in Microsoft Windows when file Sharing
    with a Unix client is enabled. It has been reported that this issue
    presents itself if a system has enabled file sharing with a Unix client
    running Samba. An attacker on a Unix client with write/create permissions
    to the mounted share can cause a resource exhaustion condition in the
    Windows system. This attack may lead to a denial of service condition,
    preventing Windows from sharing files.

    The issue may be exploited by creating and deleting up to 1000 directories
    on a share. Reportedly, every time a directory is created, Windows
    allocates paged pool memory for the directory. Paged pool memory is
    limited to 343MB on a Windows System. The allocated memory is not freed
    when the directory is deleted. The resource exhaustion occurs when a
    large number of directories (from 3.5 million to 5.8 million) have been
    deleted and created. Successful exploitation of this attack may cause a
    Windows system to discontinue file sharing due to memory exhaustion. A
    system reboot is reported to restart the services in a working order.

    Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 and Microsoft Windows
    Server 2003 are reported to be vulnerable to this issue. This issue does
    not affect Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional and prior.

    11. Netbus Directory Listings Disclosure and File Upload Vulnera...
    BugTraq ID: 9475
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 22 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9475
    Summary:
    Netbus is a backdoor program that allows remote administration of a
    compromised system. It is available for Microsoft Windows operating
    systems. Netbus can be configured to require a password for backdoor
    server access. The software is also shipped with a built in web server.

    A vulnerability has been reported in the web server software that may
    allow a remote user to the disclose root directory listings. Furthermore,
    it has been reported that a remote attacker may upload a malicious file to
    an attacker-specified location via a URI parameter. Successful
    exploitation may provide for possible disclosure of sensitive information
    and the possibility of corrupting files by uploading malicious files onto
    the affected system.

    Netbus Pro has been reported to be vulnerable to this issue.

    12. McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator Agent HTTP POST Buffer Mismanage...
    BugTraq ID: 9476
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Jan 22 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9476
    Summary:
    McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) is a product designed to remotely manage
    various policies and antivirus products. It is available for the Microsoft
    Windows operating system.

    The McAfee ePolicy agent has been reported to a buffer management
    vulnerability that may be exploited to crash the affected agent. Although
    unconfirmed, it has been reported that the issue may also allow a remote
    attacker to trigger a buffer overflow vulnerability, ultimately providing
    for the execution of arbitrary code.

    The issue reportedly presents itself, because the "Content-Length" values
    in HTTP POST headers processed by the ePolicy Orchestrator are not
    sufficiently sanitized. A remote attacker may exploit this issue to
    trigger the allocation of 4GB of data, causing the agent to crash. It has
    also been reported that the attacker may create a buffer overflow
    condition, by specifying a content length size that is not sufficient to
    store attacker-supplied data.
