TITLE:
Aircrack-ng EAPOL Parsing Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA39150
VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/39150/
DESCRIPTION:
Lukas Lueg has reported a vulnerability in Aircrack-ng, which can be
exploited by malicious people to potentially compromise a user's
system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing
of EAPOL packets. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer
overflow via e.g. a specially crafted wireless packet received by
aircrack-ng or a specially crafted capture file opened with
airodump-ng.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
SOLUTION:
Do not process untrusted data using the Aircrack-ng tools.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
