Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in IBM Informix Dynamic Server, which can be exploited by malicious people or malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.
1) A boundary error within the handling of connection requests can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted packet containing an overly large number of parameters.
2) A boundary error within oinit.exe when processing the DBPATH variable during authentication can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via an overly long DBPATH variable sent to default port 1526/TCP.
3) A boundary error within oinit.exe when processing passwords during authentication can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long password sent to default port 1526/TCP.
Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities may allow execution of arbitrary code.
