Vulnerability Name:

CCN-72199

Published:2012-01-05
Updated:2012-01-05
Summary:Novell Netware is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the xnfs.nlm component when processing NFS requests. By sending a specially-crafted NFS RPC request to UDP port 2049, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system or cause the server to crash.
