CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
From local network

OPERATING SYSTEM:
ISS Proventia A Series

SOFTWARE:
BlackICE PC Protection 3.x
BlackICE Server Protection 3.x

DESCRIPTION:
eEye Digital Security has discovered a vulnerability in multiple ISS
products, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the ISS
Protocol Analysis Module (PAM) component when re-assembling an
analysed SMB (Server Message Block) packet.

This can be exploited to cause a heap overflow by sending a specially
crafted "SMB Session Setup AndX request" SMB packet containing an
overly long value (about 300 bytes) in the "AccountName" field.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code with
SYSTEM privileges.

The vulnerability reportedly affects the following products:
* Proventia A Series XPU 20.15 through 22.9
* Proventia G Series XPU 22.3 through 22.9
* Proventia M Series XPU 1.3 through 1.7
* BlackICE PC Protection 3.6 cbr through ccb
* BlackICE Server Protection 3.6 cbr through ccb
* RealSecure Network 7.0, XPU 20.15 through 22.9
* RealSecure Server Sensor 7.0 XPU 20.16 through 22.9
* RealSecure Desktop 7.0 eba through ebh
* RealSecure Desktop 3.6 ebr through ecb
* RealSecure Guard 3.6 ebr through ecb
* RealSecure Sentry 3.6 ebr through ecb

SOLUTION:
