Descriptions

Buffer overflow in the GetDriverSettings function in nipplib.dll in Novell iPrint Client before 5.78 on Windows allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long realm field, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-3173.

Desbordamiento de búfer en la función GetDriverSettings en ??nipplib.dll en el cliente de Novell iPrint antes de v5.78 en Windows permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección a través de un campo de dominio de largo. Se trata de una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2011-3173.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Novell iPrint Client. User interaction is required in that a target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The flaw exists within the exposed GetDriverSettings method in the nipplib component imported by ienipp and npnipp. When encountering a realm parameter this user supplied value's length is not properly verified before copying into a fixed length buffer on the stack. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the process.
