Description

CA eTrust Intrusion Detection contain a flaw that may allow a remote denial of service. The issue is due to the application failing to properly validate key length values during authentication and is triggered when a remote attacker sends a specially crafted packet containing a long key length value to the remote administration port (9191/TCP). This causes a heap-based buffer overflow in SW3eng.exe in the eID Engine, resulting in loss of availability for the service.

Classification

Location: Remote/Network Access Required
Attack Type: Denial of Service, Input Manipulation
Impact: Loss of Availability
Exploit: Exploit Unavailable
Disclosure: OSVDB Verified

Solution

CA has released patches to address this issue. Additionally, it is possible to correct the flaw by implementing the following workaround(s):
