Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in Guidance Software EnCase (unknown version). This affects an unknown code block of the component Filesystem. This is going to have an impact on integrity. The summary by CVE is:

** DISPUTED ** Guidance Software EnCase does not properly handle (1) certain malformed MBR partition tables with many entries, which allows remote attackers to prevent logical collection of a disk image; (2) NTFS filesystems with directory loops, which allows remote attackers to prevent examination of certain directory contents; and (3) certain other malformed NTFS filesystems, which allows remote attackers to prevent examination of corrupted records. NOTE: the vendor disputes the significance of these issues, because physical collection can be used instead, because the vendor believes that relevant attackers typically do not corrupt an MBR or a filesystem, and because detection of a loop is valuable on its own.

The weakness was presented 07/27/2007 with isec (Website). It is possible to read the advisory at securityfocus.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2007-4035 since 07/27/2007.
