Descriptions
The default configuration of Firebird before 2.0.3.12981.0-r6 on Gentoo Linux sets the ISC_PASSWORD environment variable before starting Firebird, which allows remote attackers to bypass SYSDBA authentication and obtain sensitive database information via an empty password.
La configuración por defecto de Firebird anterior a 2.0.3.12981.0-r6 en Gentoo Linux establece la variable de entorno ISC_PASSWORD antes de arrancar Firebird, lo que permite a atacantes remotos evitar la autentificación SYSDBA y obtener información sensible de la base de datos mediante una contraseña vacía.
