CERT Summary CS-2003-02

   June 3, 2003

   Each  quarter, the CERT Coordination Center (CERT/CC) issues the
   CERT Summary  to  draw  attention  to  the types of attacks
   reported to our incident  response  team,  as  well  as  other
   noteworthy incident and vulnerability information. The summary
   includes pointers to sources of information for dealing with the
   problems.

   Past CERT summaries are available from:

Recent Activity

   Since  the last regularly scheduled CERT summary, issued in March
   2003 (CS-2003-01),  we  have  seen an integer overflow
   vulnerability within Sun's  XDR Library, multiple vulnerabilities
   in Lotus Notes and Domino Server,  a  buffer  overflow
   vulnerability  in Sendmail, and multiple vulnerabilities within
   Snort's preprocessors.

   For  more  current  information  on  activity  being  reported  to
   the CERT/CC,  please  visit the CERT/CC Current Activity page. The
   Current Activity  page  is  a  regularly updated summary of the
   most frequent, high-impact  types  of  security  incidents  and

   the Current Activity page is reviewed and updated as reporting
   trends change.

    1. Integer overflow in Sun RPC XDR library routines

       An  integer overflow vulnerability exists in the
       xdrmem_getbytes() function  distributed as part of the Sun
       Microsystems XDR library.  This  overflow  may  allow  a
       remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the victim
       machine.

    2. Multiple Vulnerabilities in Lotus Notes and Domino

       Multiple  vulnerabilities  had been reported to affect Lotus
       Notes clients and Domino servers. Due to the confusion
       surrounding these vulnerabilities  we released an advisory to
       clairfy the details of the  vulnerabilities,  the versions
       affected, and the patches that resolve these issues.

    3. Buffer Overflow in Sendmail

       There  is  a  remotely  exploitable vulnerability in sendmail
       that could  allow  an attacker to gain control of a vulnerable
       sendmail server.

       Due  to  a  variable  type  conversion  problem,  sendmail may
       not adequately  check  the length of email address tokens. A
       specially crafted email message could trigger a stack overflow.

    4. Multiple Vulnerabilities in Snort Preprocessors

       There  are  two  vulnerabilities  in the Snort Intrusion Detection
       System,   each   in   a   separate   preprocessor   module.   Both
       vulnerabilities  allow  remote attackers to execute arbitrary code
       with the privileges of the user running Snort, typically root
