fabiodds reported a boundary checking error in the "check_snmp" plugin |
| 47 |
when processing SNMP "GET" replies that could lead to a stack-based |
| 48 |
buffer overflow (CVE-2007-5623). Nobuhiro Ban reported a boundary |
| 49 |
checking error in the redir() function of the "check_http" plugin when |
| 50 |
processing HTTP "Location:" header information which might lead to a |
| 51 |
buffer overflow (CVE-2007-5198). |

<impact type="high"> |
| 55 |
<p> |
| 56 |
A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to execute |
| 57 |
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Nagios or cause |
| 58 |
a Denial of Service by (1) sending a specially crafted SNMP "GET" reply |
| 59 |
to the Nagios daemon or (2) sending an overly long string in the |
| 60 |
"Location:" header of an HTTP reply. Note that to exploit (2), the |
| 61 |
malicious or compromised web server has to be configured in Nagios and |
| 62 |
the "-f" (follow) option has to be enabled. |
| 63 |
</p> |
| 64 |
</impact> |
| 65 |
<workaround> |
| 66 |
<p> |
| 67 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
| 68 |
</p> |
| 69 |
</workaround> |
| 70 |
<resolution> |
| 71 |
<p> |
| 72 |
All users of the Nagios Plugins should upgrade to the latest version: |
| 73 |
</p> |

<code> |
| 75 |
# emerge --sync |
| 76 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-analyzer/nagios-plugins-1.4.10-r1"</code> |
