Description:
cocoruder has reported two vulnerabilities in DriverStudio, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions, and potentially compromise a vulnerable system.
1) A design error in the DriverStudio Remote Control service allows the "winice.dat" configuration file to be modified via a NULL session. This can potentially be exploited to insert SoftICE commands into the INIT string, which will be run when SoftICE is started.
2) It is possible to cause a vulnerable system to reboot without requiring any authentication, by sending a specially crafted UDP packet to port 9110/udp.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 2.7 and 3.0 BETA2. Other versions may also be affected.
