<title>CenterICQ: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
|
|
<synopsis>
|
|
CenterICQ is vulnerable to a Denial of Service issue, and also potentially
|
|
to the execution of arbitrary code through an included vulnerable ktools
|
|
library.

CenterICQ is a text-based instant messaging interface that
|
|
supports multiple protocols. It includes the ktools library, which
|
|
provides text-mode user interface controls.

|
<p>
|
|
Gentoo developer Wernfried Haas discovered that when the "Enable
|
|
peer-to-peer communications" option is enabled, CenterICQ opens a port
|
|
that insufficiently validates whatever is sent to it. Furthermore,
|
|
Zone-H Research reported a buffer overflow in the ktools library.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could cause a crash of CenterICQ by sending
|
|
packets to the peer-to-peer communications port, and potentially cause
|
|
the execution of arbitrary code by enticing a CenterICQ user to edit
|
|
overly long contact details.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All CenterICQ users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-im/centericq-4.21.0-r2"</code>
