Descriptions

Stack-based buffer overflow in nipplib.dll in Novell iPrint Client before 5.64 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted iprint-client-config-info parameter in a printer-url.

Desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila en nipplib.dll en Novell iPrint Client anterior a v5.64 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección a través del parámetro manipulado iprint-client-config-info en un printer-url.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Novell iPrint Client. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The flaw exists within the nipplib component which is used by both the ActiveX and Netscape compatible browser plugins. When handling the iprint-client-config-info parameter from the user specified printer-url the process blindly copies user supplied data into a fixed-length buffer on the stack. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the browser.
