Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in IBM Lotus Notes 7.0.3 (Groupware Software). Affected is some unknown functionality in the library kvdocve.dll. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as 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. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Buffer overflow in kvdocve.dll in the KeyView document viewing engine in Autonomy (formerly Verity) KeyView, as used by IBM Lotus Notes 7.0.2 and 7.0.3, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long pathname, as demonstrated by a long SRC attribute of an IMG element in an HTML document.

The bug was discovered 04/08/2008. The weakness was shared 04/10/2008 by Carsten Eiram with Secunia Research (Website). The advisory is shared for download at xforce.iss.net. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2008-1101 since 02/29/2008. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available.

It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 68936 (Symantec Mail Security for SMTP Autonomy KeyView Module Multiple Buffer Overflows), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Windows and running in the context l. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 115778 (IBM Lotus Notes Multiple KeyView Parsing Vulnerabilities).
