CVSS Meta Temp Score CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.	Current Exploit Price (≈) Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.	CTI Interest Score Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

A vulnerability was found in Firebird SQL Server 1.0.2 (Database Software). It has been rated as problematic. Affected by this issue is the function gds_inet_server/gds_lock_mgr/gds_drop of the component InterBase Codebase. The manipulation of the argument INTERBASE as part of a Environment Variable leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Buffer overflow in Firebird 1.0.2 and other versions before 1.5, and possibly other products that use the InterBase codebase, allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long INTERBASE environment variable when calling (1) gds_inet_server, (2) gds_lock_mgr, or (3) gds_drop.

The weakness was presented 06/17/2002 (Website). The advisory is shared for download at marc.info. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2003-0281 since 05/12/2003. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack needs to be approached locally. No form of authentication is required for exploitation. Technical details as well as a public exploit are known.

A public exploit has been developed in ANSI C. The exploit is available at securityfocus.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 14504 (GLSA-200405-18 : Buffer Overflow in Firebird), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Gentoo Local Security Checks and running in the context l.
