The XDR library from Sun Microsystems is a widely used implementation for RPC services. Although the library was originally distributed by Sun Microsystems, multiple vendors have included the vulnerable code in their own implementations. Some implementations of standard functions in this API may contain an integer overflow.
The XDR (external data representation) libraries are used to provide platform-independent methods for sending data from one system process to another, typically over a network connection. Such routines are commonly used in remote procedure call (RPC) implementations to provide transparency to application programmers who need to use common interfaces to interact with many different types of systems.
Some memory allocation routines in the XDR library provided by Sun Microsystems contain an integer overflow that can lead to improperly sized dynamic memory allocation. The length of the allocated buffer is interpreted as a signed integer, whereas the callers interpret the length as an unsigned integer. The xdrmem_getbytes() function is one example of where the flaw may occur. Subsequent problems like buffer overflows may result, depending on how and where the vulnerable xdrmem_getbytes() function is used. Other functions in the xdrmem*()_ family may suffer from an identical error.
Researchers at eEye Digital Security discovered this vulnerability and have also published an advisory. This vulnerability is similar to, but distinct from, VU#192995.
Because Sun RPC-derived XDR libraries are used by a variety of vendors in a variety of applications, this defect may lead to a number of differing security problems. Exploiting this vulnerability will lead to denial of service, execution of arbitrary code, or the disclosure of sensitive information. Furthermore, because RPC services often run as root on affected systems, this vulnerability may be leveraged to gain remote root access on vulnerable systems.
Apply a patch from the vendor
Several vendors of relevant or derived implementations have released patches to address this vulnerability; please see the vendor section of this document for further details.
Workarounds
Disable access to vulnerable services or applications
Until patches are available and can be applied, you may wish to disable access to services or applications compiled with the vulnerable xdrmem*()_ functions. As a best practice, the CERT/CC recommends disabling all services that are not explicitly required.

It may be possible for a remote attacker to exploit an integer overflow in xdrmem_getbytes() to crash the kadmind server process by a read segmentation fault. For this to succeed, the kadmind process must be able to allocate more than MAX_INT bytes of memory. This is believed to be unlikely, as most installations are not likely to permit that the allocation of that much memory.
It may also be possible for a remote attacker to exploit this integer overflow to obtain sensitive information, such as secret keys, from the kadmind process. This is believed to be extremely unlikely, as there are unlikely to be ways for the information, once improperly copied, of being returned to the attacker. In addition, the above condition of the kadmind being able to allocate huge amounts of memory must be satisfied.

The xdrmem_getbytes() integer overflow discovered by eEye Digital Security was present in the glibc package on Openwall GNU/*/Linux until 2003/03/23 when it was corrected for Owl-current (with a back-port from the glibc CVS) and documented as a security fix in the system-wide change log available at:
``<http://www.openwall.com/Owl/CHANGES-current.shtml>``
Please note that Owl does not include any RPC services (but it does include a few RPC clients). It has not been fully researched whether an Owl install with no third-party software added is affected by this vulnerability at all.
