Description |
A local overflow exists in IBM AIX. The namerslv command fails to validate input parameters properly resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker can cause segmentation faults. The namerslv utility is not SUID and does not result in privilege escalation or loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability.
