What do you think of the new Novell support changes? I encourage you to leave your comments on this!
I like it, brings Novell's support in line with other companies such as Cisco
I do not like it
Novell is blooming crazy, this is going to push customers, IT people, and consultants away from Novell even further!
I do not care either way

Novell iManager eDirectory Plugin Schema Processing Buffer Overflow

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA38030

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/38030/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Novell iManager, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the eDirectory
plugin when processing schema information. This can be exploited to
cause a stack-based buffer overflow when specially crafted schema
information is imported or exported.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is reported in versions 2.7.2 and prior.

SOLUTION:
Apply SP3 for iManager 2.7 and update the eDirectory plugin to
version 2.7.3.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
