Stack Overflow Vulnerabilities

-- CVE ID:
CVE-2007-1868
-- Affected Vendor:
IBM
-- Affected Products:
Tivoli Provisioning Manager for OS Deployment
-- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
systems with vulnerable installations of IBM Tivoli Provisioning
Manager for OS Deployment. Authentication is not required to exploit
this vulnerability.
The specific flaws exist in the handling of HTTP requests to the
rembo.exe service listening on TCP port 8080. Several components of an
HTTP request can be modified to trigger buffer overflows. For example,
by supplying an overly long filename an attacker is able to overflow a
150 byte stack buffer and subsequently execute arbitrary code. The
overflow occurs during a string copy loop, shown here:
00431136 lea edi, [ebp+var_3C4] ; 150 byte stack buffer
...
00431148 stringcopy:
00431148 mov al, [edx] ; edx -> our data
0043114A add edx, 1
0043114D mov [edi], al ; edi -> stack buffer
0043114F add edi, 1
00431152 test al, al
00431154 jnz short stringcopy
The Host and Authorization fields are also vulnerable to similar
exploitable overflows.
