Novell : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2006

Stack-based buffer overflow in the pam_micasa PAM authentication module in CASA on Novell Linux Desktop 9 and Open Enterprise Server 1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

The signature verification functionality in the YaST Online Update (YOU) script handling relies on a gpg feature that is not intended for signature verification, which prevents YOU from detecting malicious scripts or code that do not pass the signature check when gpg 1.4.x is being used.

Stack-based buffer overflow in Novell GroupWise Messenger before 2.0 Public Beta 2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long Accept-Language value without a comma or semicolon. NOTE: due to a typo, the original ZDI advisory accidentally referenced CVE-2006-0092. This is the correct identifier.

The SSL server implementation in NILE.NLM in Novell NetWare 6.5 and Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES) permits encryption with a NULL key, which results in cleartext communication that allows remote attackers to read an SSL protected session by sniffing network traffic.

The SSL server implementation in NILE.NLM in Novell NetWare 6.5 and Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES) sometimes selects a weak cipher instead of an available stronger cipher, which makes it easier for remote attackers to sniff and decrypt an SSL protected session.

The SSL server implementation in NILE.NLM in Novell NetWare 6.5 and Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES) allows a client to force the server to use weak encryption by stating that a weak cipher is required for client compatibility, which might allow remote attackers to decrypt contents of an SSL protected session.

Unspecified vulnerability in the HTTP proxy in Novell BorderManager 3.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and ABEND) via unknown attack vectors related to "media streaming over HTTP 1.1".

Novell Netware NWFTPD 5.06.05 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (ABEND) via an MDTM command that uses a long path for the target file, possibly due to a buffer overflow.

PORTAL.NLM in Novell Netware 6.5 SP5 writes the username and password in cleartext to the abend.log log file when the groupOperationsMethod function fails, which allows context-dependent attackers to gain privileges.

Multiple integer overflows in the DPRPC library (DPRPCW32.DLL) in Novell Client 4.83 SP3, 4.90 SP2 and 4.91 SP2 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an XDR encoded array with a field that specifies a large number of elements, which triggers the overflows in the ndps_xdr_array function. NOTE: this was originally reported to be a buffer overflow by Novell, but the original cause is an integer overflow.

Multiple integer overflows in the DPRPC library (DPRPCNLM.NLM) NDPS/iPrint module in Novell Distributed Print Services in Novell NetWare 6.5 SP3, SP4, and SP5 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an XDR encoded array with a field that specifies a large number of elements, which triggers the overflows in the ndps_xdr_array function.

Buffer overflow in iMonitor 2.4 in Novell eDirectory 8.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown attack vectors.

Novell Client for Windows 4.8 and 4.9 does not restrict access to the clipboard contents while a machine is locked, which allows users with physical access to read the current clipboard contents by pasting them into the "User Name" field on the login prompt.

Unspecified vulnerability in the Windows Client API in Novell GroupWise 5.x through 7 might allow users to obtain "random programmatic access" to other email within the same post office.

FastPatch for (a) PatchLink Update Server (PLUS) before 6.1 P1 and 6.2.x before 6.2 SR1 P1, and (b) Novell ZENworks 6.2 SR1 and earlier, does not require authentication for dagent/proxyreg.asp, which allows remote attackers to list, add, or delete PatchLink Distribution Point (PDP) proxy servers via modified (1) List, (2) Proxy, or (3) Delete parameters.

Directory traversal vulnerability in (a) PatchLink Update Server (PLUS) before 6.1 P1 and 6.2.x before 6.2 SR1 P1 and (b) Novell ZENworks 6.2 SR1 and earlier allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files and directories via a .. (dot dot) sequence in the (1) action, (2) agentid, or (3) index parameters to dagent/nwupload.asp, which are used as pathname components.

SQL injection vulnerability in checkprofile.asp in (1) PatchLink Update Server (PLUS) before 6.1 P1 and 6.2.x before 6.2 SR1 P1 and (2) Novell ZENworks 6.2 SR1 and earlier, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the agentid parameter.

Agnitum Outpost Firewall Pro 3.51.759.6511 (462), as used in (1) Lavasoft Personal Firewall 1.0.543.5722 (433) and (2) Novell BorderManager Novell Client Firewall 2.0, does not properly restrict user activities in application windows that run in a LocalSystem context, which allows local users to gain privileges and execute commands (a) via the "open folder" option when no instance of explorer.exe is running, possibly related to the ShellExecute API function; or (b) by overwriting a batch file through the "Save Configuration As" option. NOTE: this might be a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows and explorer.exe instead of the firewall.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Novell GroupWise WebAccess 6.5 and 7 before 20060727 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via an encoded SCRIPT element in an e-mail message with the UTF-7 character set, as demonstrated by the "+ADw-SCRIPT+AD4-" sequence.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the login page in Novell GroupWise WebAccess 6.5 before 20060721 and WebAccess 7 before 20060727 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the GWAP.version parameter.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the NCP engine in Novell eDirectory before 8.8.1 FTF1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted NCP over IP packet that causes NCP to read more data than intended.

Unspecified vulnerability in the NCPENGINE in Novell eDirectory 8.7.3.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via unspecified vectors, as originally demonstrated using a Nessus scan.

The iManager in eMBoxClient.jar in Novell eDirectory 8.7.3.8 writes passwords in plaintext to a log file, which allows local users to obtain passwords by reading the file.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in webacc in Novell GroupWise WebAccess before 7 Support Pack 3 Public Beta allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) User.html, (2) Error, (3) User.Theme.index, and (4) and User.lang parameters.

Integer overflow in the evtFilteredMonitorEventsRequest function in the LDAP service in Novell eDirectory before 8.8.1 FTF1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted request.
