Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Borland InterBase, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors in various functions and can be exploited to cause stack-based buffer overflows via specially crafted parameters passed to the affected functions.

The following functions are reportedly affected:
* INET_connect
* SVC_attach
* isc_attach_database
* jrd8_attach_database
* isc_create_database
* jrd8_create_database
* PWD_db_aliased
* expand_filename2
* open_marker_file (UNIX only)

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
