Borland InterBase IBServer.EXE Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Borland InterBase is prone to a remote stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data.

Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed attacks will likely cause denial-of-service conditions.

The issue affects Borland InterBase 2007 SP2; other versions may also be vulnerable.

NOTE: This issue may be related to a vulnerability discussed in BID 25917 (Borland InterBase Multiple Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities). We will update this BID pending further investigation.
