Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists in the Novell Client Trust application, clntrust.exe, which listens by default on UDP port 3024 on Novell client machines. During a validation request, the Client Trust process copies a user-supplied Novell tree name until a wide-character backslash or a NULL is encountered. If neither is found within the data, the process will copy excess data which later overflows a static buffer during a call to wsprintfA. - -- Vendor Response: Novell has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More details can be found at: http://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=AuOWp2Xsvmc~ - -- Disclosure Timeline: 2007.07.17 - Vulnerability reported to vendor 2007.10.25 - Coordinated public release of advisory - -- Credit: This vulnerability was discovered by uvinc. - -- About the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI): Established by TippingPoint, a division of 3Com, The Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) represents a best-of-breed model for rewarding security researchers for responsibly disclosing discovered vulnerabilities.
