TITLE:
Sun Solaris Event Port API Denial of Service Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA21132

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/21132/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
DoS

WHERE:
>From remote

OPERATING SYSTEM:
Sun Solaris 10
http://secunia.com/product/4813/

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Solaris, which potentially
can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service).

The vulnerabilities are caused due to unspecified errors in the event
port API and can be exploited by malicious, local users to run an
application using the API in such a way that the system crashes.

On systems running e.g. Apache2, it may be possible for malicious
people to crash the system (the Apache2 web server distributed with
Solaris 10 in the SUNWapch2d and SUNWapch2u packages is, however, not
affected).

SOLUTION:
Apply patches.

-- SPARC Platform --

Solaris 10:
Apply patch 118833-12 or later.


-- x86 Platform --

Solaris 10:
Apply patch 118855-10 or later.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported by the vendor.
