Descriptions

Heap-based buffer overflow in the XML parser in the AIM plugin in Trillian before 3.1.12.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed XML tag.

Desbordamiento de búfer basado en montículo en el analizador XML en el plugin AIM en Trillian versiones anteriores a 3.1.12.0, que permite a los atacantes remotos ejecutar arbitrariamente código a través de etiquetas XML mal formadas.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Cerulean Studios Trillian. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the XML processing code for Trillian. When parsing a malformed XML tag, the application does not allocate enough space for it's contents. During copying of this to the newly allocated buffer, the application will overwrite heap structures with attacker-supplied data that can then be leveraged to achieve code execution with the privileges of the application.
