Description: Two vulnerabilities have been reported in MaxDB, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or compromise a vulnerable system.
1) An input validation error within the "IsAscii7()" function can be exploited by sending a specially crafted HTTP request containing a value higher than 0x7F in the "Server" field to webdbm.
Successful exploitation crashes the web agent component.
2) A boundary error in the websql CGI application can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by passing an overly long password.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 7.5.00. Other versions may also be affected.
