Description:
CESG Network Defence Team has reported two vulnerabilities in Hummingbird Connectivity, which can be exploited to gain escalated privileges or cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
1) The Inetd32 administration tool makes it possible for malicious, local users to configure services including changing the executables that are executed, when a connection is received. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary applications with SYSTEM privileges.
2) A boundary error in the FTP service when handling "XCWD" FTP commands can be exploited by malicious users to crash the service by passing an overly long directory name.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in versions 7.1 and 9.0. Other versions may also be affected.
