This vulnerability is in a + dynamic-preprocessor enabled in the default configuration, + and the configuration for this preprocessor allows for + auto-recognition of SMB traffic to perform reassembly + on. No checks are performed to see if the traffic is part + of a valid TCP session, and multiple Write AndX requests + can be chained in the same TCP segment. As a result, an + attacker can exploit this overflow with a single TCP PDU + sent across a network monitored by Snort or Sourcefire.</p> + <p>Snort users who cannot upgrade immediately are advised to + disable the DCE/RPC preprocessor by removing the DCE/RPC + preprocessor directives from snort.conf and restarting + Snort. However, be advised that disabling the DCE/RPC + preprocessor reduces detection capabilities for attacks in + DCE/RPC traffic. After upgrading, customers should + re-enable the DCE/RPC preprocessor.</p> + </blockquote> + </body> + </description> + <references> + <certvu>196240</certvu> + <cvename>CVE-2006-5276</cvename> + <url>http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/31275</url> + <url>http://www.snort.org/docs/advisory-2007-02-19.html</url> + </references> + <dates> + <discovery>2007-02-19</discovery> + <entry>2007-02-21</entry> + </dates> + </vuln> + <vuln vid="94234e00-be8a-11db-b2ec-000c6ec775d9"> <topic>rar -- password prompt buffer overflow vulnerability</topic> <affects> |
