{"id": "SMNTC-30082", "type": "symantec", "bulletinFamily": "software", "title": "Microsoft SQL Server Convert Function Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability", "description": "### Description\n\nMicrosoft SQL Server is prone to a remote memory-corruption vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input. Authenticated attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code and completely compromise affected computers. Failed attacks will likely cause denial-of-service conditions.\n\n### Technologies Affected\n\n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine SP1 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine SP2 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine SP3 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine SP4 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Itanium Edition \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Itanium Edition SP1 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Itanium Edition SP2 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Itanium Edition SP3 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Itanium Edition SP4 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP1 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP2 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP3 \n * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP4 \n * Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server SP4 \n * Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server SP4 \n * Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional SP4 \n * Microsoft Windows 2000 Server SP4 \n * VMWare Vcenter Update Manager 1.0 \n * VMWare Vcenter Update Manager 4.0 \n * VMWare Vcenter Update Manager 4.1 \n * VMWare VirtualCenter 2.5 \n * VMWare VirtualCenter 2.5 Update 1 \n * VMWare VirtualCenter 2.5 Update 2 \n * VMWare VirtualCenter 2.5 Update 4 \n * VMWare VirtualCenter 2.5 Update 5 \n * VMWare VirtualCenter 2.5 Update 6 \n * VMWare VirtualCenter 2.5.Update 3 Build 11983 \n * VMWare vCenter 4.0 \n * VMWare vCenter 4.1 \n\n### Recommendations\n\n**Disallow anonymous access to services. Permit access for trusted individuals only.** \nPermitting access only for trusted individuals will greatly reduce the likelihood of attacks.\n\n**Run all software as a nonprivileged user with minimal access rights.** \nTo mitigate the impact of a successful exploit, run the affected application as a user with minimal access rights.\n\n**Deploy network intrusion detection systems to monitor network traffic for malicious activity.** \nDeploy NIDS to monitor network traffic for signs of suspicious or anomalous activity. This may help detect malicious actions that an attacker may take after successfully exploiting vulnerabilities in applications. Review all applicable logs regularly.\n\n**Implement multiple redundant layers of security.** \nSince this issue may be leveraged to execute code, we recommend memory-protection schemes, such as nonexecutable stack/heap configurations and randomly mapped memory segments. This tactic may complicate exploit attempts of memory-corruption vulnerabilities.\n\nThe vendor has released an advisory and fixes.
