Stack buffer overflow vulnerability in Lotus Domino iCalendar functionality
Flash (Alert)
Abstract
MWR InfoSecurity and TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) contacted IBM
Lotus to report a potential buffer overflow vulnerability with the Lotus
Domino iCalendar functionality.
Content
It is possible to cause a buffer overflow situation based on the iCalendar
content included in a calendar invitation.
To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would have to send an iCalendar
invitation with specific parameters. The vulnerability is exposed when the
Domino server goes to process that content which could result in remote
execution of code.
For related information, see the following advisories:
