Summary: | FTP server in Solaris 8 and earlier allows local and remote attackers to cause a core dump in the root directory, possibly with world-readable permissions, by providing a valid username with an invalid password followed by a CWD ~ command, which could release sensitive information such as shadowed passwords, or fill the disk partition. | ||||||||

Summary: | The FTP server shipped with Sun Solaris is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in the glob() function. A remote attacker can overflow a buffer to cause the system to dump core. By using the "CWD~" command and the glob function exploit, an attacker can cause parts of the shadow file, which includes sensitive information such as encrypted passwords, to be dumped to core. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain passwords of other users from the shadow file and possibly gain elevated privileges on the system. | ||||||||
