Descriptions
Libntlm through 1.5 relies on a fixed buffer size for tSmbNtlmAuthRequest, tSmbNtlmAuthChallenge, and tSmbNtlmAuthResponse read and write operations, as demonstrated by a stack-based buffer over-read in buildSmbNtlmAuthRequest in smbutil.c for a crafted NTLM request.
Libntlm versiones hasta 1.5, se basa en un tamaño de búfer fijo para operaciones de lectura y escritura de las funciones tSmbNtlmAuthRequest, tSmbNtlmAuthChallenge y tSmbNtlmAuthResponse, como es demostrado por una lectura excesiva de búfer en la región heap de la memoria en la función buildSmbNtlmAuthRequest en el archivo smbutil.c para una petición NTLM especialmente diseñada.
It was discovered that Libntlm incorrectly handled specially crafted NTML requests. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or another unspecified impact.
