Domain Name System (DNS) stub resolver libraries vulnerable to buffer overflows via network name or address lookups

Overview The DNS stub resolver library in ISC BIND 4.9.2 through 4.9.10 contains buffer overflows in code that handles responses for network name and address requests. Other resolver libraries derived from BIND 4 such as BSD libc, GNU glibc, and those used by System V UNIX systems may also be...

Moderate: Red Hat Security Advisory: : Updated glibc packages fix vulnerabilities in resolver

Updated glibc packages are available to fix a buffer overflow in the resolver. The GNU C library package, glibc, contains standard libraries used by multiple programs on the system. A read buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the glibc resolver code in versions of glibc up to and including...

CVE-2002-0684

Buffer overflow in DNS resolver functions that perform lookup of network names and addresses, as used in BIND 4.9.8 and ported to glibc 2.2.5 and earlier, allows remote malicious DNS servers to execute arbitrary code through a subroutine used by functions such as getnetbyname and getnetbyaddr...

Important: Red Hat Security Advisory: glibc security update

Updated glibc packages are available which fix a buffer overflow in the XDR decoder and two vulnerabilities in the resolver functions. updated 8 aug 2002 Updated packages have been made available, as the original errata introduced a bug which could cause calloc to crash on 32-bit platforms when...

Multiple vendors' Domain Name System (DNS) stub resolvers vulnerable to buffer overflow via network name and address lookups

Overview Buffer overflow vulnerabilities exists in the DNS stub resolver library used by BSD, ISC BIND, and GNU glibc. Other systems that use DNS resolver code derived from ISC BIND may also be affected. An attacker who is able to control DNS responses could exploit arbitrary code or cause a deni...

CVE-2002-0684

CVE-2002-0684 describes a buffer overflow in the DNS resolver logic used by BIND 4.9.8 and ported to glibc 2.2.5 and earlier. The flaw occurs in resolver/DNS name resolution (getnetbyname/getnetbyaddr) and can allow a remote attacker sending crafted DNS responses to execute arbitrary code. Severa...

CVE-2000-1207

userhelper in the usermode package on Red Hat Linux executes non-setuid programs as root, which does not activate the security measures in glibc and allows the programs to be exploited via format string vulnerabilities in glibc via the LANG or LCALL environment variables CVE-2000-0844...

CVE-2000-1207

CVE-2000-1207 affects the userhelper component in the Red Hat Linux usermode package. It executes non-setuid programs as root, which prevents glibc security measures from activating. This creates a local exposure where vulnerable programs can be exploited via format string weaknesses in glibc, tr...
