Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in canna, a Japanese input system. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project identified the following vulnerabilities :

  • CAN-2002-1158 (BugTraq Id 6351): ‘hsj’ of Shadow Penguin Security discovered a heap overflow vulnerability in the irw_through function in canna server.
  • CAN-2002-1159 (BugTraq Id 6354): Shinra Aida of the Canna project discovered that canna does not properly validate requests, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or information leak.
