Adriano Lima and Ramon de Carvalho Valle reported that functions
|
||
|
isc_attach_database() and isc_create_database() do not perform proper
|
||
|
boundary checking when processing their input.

<impact type="normal">
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
A remote attacker could send specially crafted requests to the Firebird
|
||
|
server on TCP port 3050, possibly resulting in the execution of
|
||
|
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firebird
|
||
|
(usually firebird).

<workaround>
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

<resolution>

All Firebird users should upgrade to the latest version:
