Unspecified vulnerability in Novell eDirectory allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated by vd_novell.pm, a "Novell eDirectory remote exploit." NOTE: As of 20061108, this disclosure has no actionable information. However, since it is from a reliable researcher, it is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.
The BerDecodeLoginDataRequest function in the libnmasldap.so NMAS module in Novell eDirectory 8.8 and 8.8.1 before the Security Services 2.0.3 patch does not properly increment a pointer when handling certain input, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory access) via a crafted login request.
Novell iManager 2.5 and 2.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) in the Tomcat server via a long TREE parameter in an HTTP POST, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the NCP engine in Novell eDirectory before 8.8.1 FTF1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted NCP over IP packet that causes NCP to read more data than intended.
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in Novell eDirectory 8.8.x before 8.8.1 FTF1, and 8.x up to 8.7.3.8, and Novell NetMail before 3.52e FTF2, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a long HTTP Host header, which triggers an overflow in the BuildRedirectURL function; or vectors related to a username containing a . (dot) character in the (2) SMTP, (3) POP, (4) IMAP, (5) HTTP, or (6) Networked Messaging Application Protocol (NMAP) Netmail services.
The NCP Engine in Novell eDirectory before 8.7.3.8 FTF1 allows remote attackers to cause an unspecified denial of service via a certain "NCP Fragment."
Integer overflow in the evtFilteredMonitorEventsRequest function in the LDAP service in Novell eDirectory before 8.8.1 FTF1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted request.
The evtFilteredMonitorEventsRequest function in the LDAP service in Novell eDirectory before 8.8.1 FTF1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted request containing a value that is larger than the number of objects transmitted, which triggers an invalid free of unallocated memory.
Unspecified vulnerability in IKE.NLM in Novell BorderManager 3.8 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unknown attack vectors related to "VPN issues" for certain "IKE and IPsec settings."
OpenSSH portable 4.1 on SUSE Linux, and possibly other platforms and versions, and possibly under limited configurations, allows remote attackers to determine valid usernames via timing discrepancies in which responses take longer for valid usernames than invalid ones, as demonstrated by sshtime. NOTE: as of 20061014, it appears that this issue is dependent on the use of manually-set passwords that causes delays when processing /etc/shadow due to an increased number of rounds.
