SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA40805 VERIFY ADVISORY: Secunia.com http://secunia.com/advisories/40805/ Customer Area (Credentials Required) https://ca.secunia.com/?page=viewadvisory&vuln_id=40805 RELEASE DATE: 2010-08-20 DISCUSS ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/40805/#comments DESCRIPTION: Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Novell iPrint Client, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. 1) A boundary error in the handling of the "call-back-url" parameter value for a "op-client-interface-version" operation where the "result-type" parameter is set to "url" can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long "call-back-url" parameter value. 2) An error in PluginGetDriverFile can be exploited to use data in uninitialised memory as a pointer. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code when a user e.g. visits a malicious website. SOLUTION: Update to version 5.44. Further details available in Customer Area: http://secunia.com/products/corporate/EVM/ PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: 1) Carsten Eiram, Secunia Research. 2) Aaron Portnoy, TippingPoint DVLabs.
