Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Novell NetWare, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the portmapper daemon (PKERNEL.NLM) when handling RPC calls. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted CALLIT RPC call.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is reported in all 6.5 versions. Other versions may also be affected.
