ZDI-10-186: IBM TSM FastBack _CalcHashValueWithLength Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability http://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-10-186 September 29, 2010 -- CVSS: 5, (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P) -- Affected Vendors: IBM -- Affected Products: IBM Tivoli Storage Manager FastBack -- Vulnerability Details: This vulnerability allows remote attackers to create a denial of service condition on vulnerable installations of IBM Tivoli FastBack Server. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within FastBackServer.exe which listens by default on tcp port 11406. The issue is due to an unchecked user supplied length value. This value is used to iterate over supplied data and calculate a CRC value. Successful exploitation leads to an unhandled access violation and immediate termination of the FastBackServer.exe process. -- Vendor Response: IBM states: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21443820 Issue 3 -- Disclosure Timeline: 2010-01-22 - Vulnerability reported to vendor 2010-09-29 - Coordinated public release of advisory -- Credit: This vulnerability was discovered by: * Sebastian Apelt (www.siberas.de) -- About the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI): Established by TippingPoint, The Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) represents a best-of-breed model for rewarding security researchers for responsibly disclosing discovered vulnerabilities.
