A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in Apple Darwin Streaming Server up to 5.5.4. Affected is the function is_command of the file proxy.c. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a stack-based overflow vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-121. A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function). This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the is_command function in proxy.c in Apple Darwin Streaming Proxy, when using Darwin Streaming Server before 5.5.5, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) cmd or (2) server value in an RTSP request.

The bug was discovered 05/10/2007. The weakness was published 05/10/2007 (Website). The advisory is available at docs.info.apple.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2007-0749 since 02/05/2007. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit.

It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 25214 (Darwin Streaming Server < 5.5.5 Multiple RCE Vulnerabilities), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Gain a shell remotely and running in the context r.
