TITLE:
Novell NetWare FTP Server Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA39151

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/39151/

DESCRIPTION:
Francis Provencher has reported a vulnerability in Novell NetWare,
which can be exploited by malicious users to potentially compromise a
vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in NWFTPD.nlm
when processing FTP commands. This can be exploited to cause a
stack-based buffer overflow via specially crafted arguments passed to
the MKD and RMD commands.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is reported in NWFTPD.NLM versions prior to
5.10.01.

SOLUTION:
Update NWFTPD.NLM to version 5.10.01.
