Discussion

Novell eDirectory EvtFilteredMonitorEventsRequest Multiple Vulnerabilities

The Novell eDirectory server is prone to buffer-overflow and invalid-free vulnerabilities because it fails to perform sufficient bounds checking on client-supplied data before copying it to a buffer or referencing a value outside of an array.

An attacker could leverage these issues to have arbitrary code execute with administrative privileges. A successful exploit could result in a denial of service or code execution, possibly leading to the complete compromise of the affected system.

eDirectory 8.8/8.8.1 are vulnerable to these issues; prior versions may be affected as well.
