Vulnerability Name:

CCN-58816

Published:2010-05-21
Updated:2010-05-21
Summary:Sun Solaris is vulnerable to a buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by econvert() and fconvert() functions in the libc library. By sending specially-crafted data to the functions, a local attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system or cause the system to crash.
