dhcp3 vulnerability
CVE-2011-0997
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Description
===========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in several VMware
products. Neel Mehta and Ryan Smith (IBM ISS X-Force) discovered that
the DHCP server contains an integer overflow vulnerability
(CVE-2007-0062), an integer underflow vulnerability (CVE-2007-0063) and
another error when handling malformed packets (CVE-2007-0061), leading
to stack-based buffer overflows or stack corruption. Rafal Wojtczvk
(McAfee) discovered two unspecified errors that allow authenticated
users with administrative or login privileges on a guest operating

3. *Vulnerability Description*
Dnsmasq is a lightweight DNS forwarder and DHCP server. A vulnerability
has been found that may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on
servers or home routers running dnsmasq[1] with the TFTP service[2][3]
enabled ('--enable-tfp'). This service is not enabled by default on most
distributions; in particular it is not enabled by default on OpenWRT or
DD-WRT. Chances of successful exploitation increase when a long
Details follow:
Sebastian Krahmer discovered that the xrdb utility incorrectly filtered
crafted hostnames. An attacker could use this flaw with a malicious
DHCP server or with a remote xdmcp login and execute arbitrary code,
resulting in root privilege escalation.

server. It includes support for Trivial FTP (TFTP).

P.S.Ziegler yet. (He might or might not be aware of these facts).
If the report is right and logs recoriding you connecting and obtaining an IP
address are a concern then you should be terrified already. I suspect that I
could reconstruct much of what you did online given access to all the
asssociated logs. Getting an IP address from a DHCP server and using almost
any other service whatsoever usually generates at least an IP address and
timestamp. Bind 9 has logs, and they are on by default, so big brother might
be able to deduce a lot just using your ISP's DNS logs.

Package : isc-dhcp
Vulnerability : denial of service
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2011-2748 CVE-2011-2749
After a standard system upgrade you need to reboot your computer to
effect the necessary changes.
Details follow:
Neel Mehta and Ryan Smith discovered that the VMWare Player DHCP server
did not correctly handle certain packet structures. Remote attackers
could send specially crafted packets and gain root privileges.
(CVE-2007-0061, CVE-2007-0062, CVE-2007-0063)
Rafal Wojtczvk discovered multiple memory corruption issues in VMWare
Sebastian Krahmer discovered that the xrdb utility of x11-xserver-utils,
a X server resource database utility, is not properly filtering crafted
hostnames. This allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code with
root privileges given that either remote logins via xdmcp are allowed or
the attacker is able to place a rogue DHCP server into the victims network.
The oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 7.3+6.

A vulnerability has been found and corrected in xrdb:
xrdb.c in xrdb before 1.0.9 in X.Org X11R7.6 and earlier allows remote
attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a
hostname obtained from a (1) DHCP or (2) XDMCP message (CVE-2011-0465).

Dear lee.e.rian@census.gov,
Why do you think you can't do it with SNMP? An examples are settings DNS
server option via DHCP (or DNS domain name for proxy server
autodiscovery protocol) or even configuring a VPN tunnel for all
traffic. I'm not sure about Tsunami, for Orinoco these settings are

dnsmasq (http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/doc.html) a popular DHCP
and DNS forwarder and cache server used on many DSL/Cable routers now
has a simple DNS Rebinding protection mechanism. When executed with the
--stop-dns-rebind option the DNS resolver in dnsmasq will filter out
private IP addresses (127.0.0.0/8, 192.168.0.0/16, 10.0.0.0/8,
172.16.0.0/12 and 169.254.0.0/16). This should be sufficient for most
private/home users.

commonly used by viruses as added feature, when the specific AV is
detected on the infected machine, crashing the system just to annoy. Or
by a human attacker, after a succesful remote intrusion with
unprivileged credentials to make a computer resource unavailable to its
intended users. Besides, this could be a very valuable resource when
trying to fake some service that answers broadcasts request like a DHCP,
allowing to start the service in another location replacing the original
one.

Hi Yossi,
Are you doing something funky with your IP address, e.g., NAT'ed/short DHCP
lease? The reason I ask is because in 2008, Adrian Pastor stated
authentication in the 3Com Wireless 8760 was linked to the source IP
address [1]. It may well be the case (as you have discovered) that it
allows arbitrary IP addresses to access the config once an administrator
has authentication... However, I just wanted to hit this badboy up incase
there was some confusion.

be used for example to create an active/active condition in

Hello,
I've been playing with DHCPd bug in *Ubuntu Linux*. According to the
analysis by Core it could be theoretically possible to get a shell ("the
possibility of using it to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable systems was
not investigated in-depth and should not be disregarded"):
