CVE-2019-3705 vulnerability in Dell Products
Published on April 26, 2019
Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Dell EMC iDRAC6 versions prior to 2.92, iDRAC7/iDRAC8 versions prior to 2.61.60.60, and iDRAC9 versions prior to 3.20.21.20, 3.21.24.22, 3.21.26.22 and 3.23.23.23 contain a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability. An unauthenticated remote attacker may potentially exploit this vulnerability to crash the webserver or execute arbitrary code on the system with privileges of the webserver by sending specially crafted input data to the affected system.
Weakness Type
What is a Classic Buffer Overflow Vulnerability?
The program copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer, leading to a buffer overflow. A buffer overflow condition exists when a program attempts to put more data in a buffer than it can hold, or when a program attempts to put data in a memory area outside of the boundaries of a buffer. The simplest type of error, and the most common cause of buffer overflows, is the "classic" case in which the program copies the buffer without restricting how much is copied. Other variants exist, but the existence of a classic overflow strongly suggests that the programmer is not considering even the most basic of security protections.
CVE-2019-3705 has been classified to as a Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability or weakness.
