Description:
TippingPoint has reported a vulnerability in Borland InterBase, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the processing of "create" requests. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted "create" request to port 3050/TCP of the vulnerable system.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is reported in Borland InterBase 2007 prior to Service Pack 2.
Solution:
Update to Borland InterBase 2007 Service Pack 2.
