TITLE

SAP DB Buffer overflow vulnerability in products such as

DESCRIPTION

Buffer overflow in SAP DB and MaxDB before 7.6.00.30 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long database name when connecting via a WebDBM client. SAP-DB and MaxDB are prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because these applications fail to perform sufficient bounds-checking of user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer. Failed exploit attempts will likely crash the application, denying further service to legitimate users. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Symantec Vulnerability Research http://www.symantec.com/research Security Advisory Advisory ID: SYMSA-2006-09 Advisory Title: SAP-DB/MaxDB WebDBM remote buffer overflow Author: Oliver Karow / Oliver_Karow@symantec.com Release Date: 29-08-2006 Application: SAP-DB/MaxDB 7.6.00.22 - WebDBM Platform: Windows/Unix Severity: Remotely exploitable/Local System Access Vendor status: Verified by vendor / Resolved in 7.6.00.31 CVE Number: CVE-2006-4305 Reference: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/19660 Overview: A connection from a WebDBM Client to the DBM Server causes a buffer overflow when the given database name is too large. This can result in the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the database server. Details: SAP-DB/MaxDB is a heavy-duty, SAP-certified open source database for OLTP and OLAP usage which offers high reliability, availability, scalability and a very comprehensive feature set. It is targeted for large mySAP Business Suite environments and other applications that require maximum enterprise-level database functionality and complements the MySQL database server. A remotely exploitable vulnerability exists in MaxDB's WebDBM. Authentication is not required for successful exploitation to occur. Vendor Response: The above vulnerability has been fixed in the latest release of the product, MaxDB 7.6.00.31. Licensed and evaluation versions of MaxDB are available for download in the download section of www.mysql.com/maxdb: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/maxdb/7.6.00.html. If there are any further questions about this statement, please contact mysql-MaxDB support. Please note that SAP customers receive their downloads via the SAP Service Marketplace www.service.sap.com and must not use downloads from the addresses above for their SAP solutions. Recommendation: The vendor has released MaxDB 7.6.00.31 to address this issue. Users should contact the vendor to obtain the appropriate upgrade. As a temporary workaround the SAP-DB WWW Service should either be disabled or have access to it restricted using appropriate network or client based access controls. Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) Information: The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned the following names to these issues. These are candidates for inclusion in the CVE list (http://cve.mitre.org), which standardizes names for security problems.
