Details
A vulnerability was found in HP HP-UX B.11.11/B.11.23/B.11.31 (Operating System). It has been classified as critical. This affects some unknown functionality of the component IPv6 Neighbor Discovery. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does
not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the
properties that are required to process the data safely and
correctly. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) implementation in HP HP-UX B.11.11, B.11.23, and B.11.31 does not validate the origin of Neighbor Discovery messages, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of connectivity), read private network traffic, and possibly execute arbitrary code via a spoofed message that modifies the Forward Information Base (FIB), a related issue to CVE-2008-2476.
The weakness was presented 02/04/2009 (Website). The advisory is shared at vupen.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2009-0418 since 02/04/2009. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available.
It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 35642 (HP-UX PHNE_37897 : HP-UX Running IPv6, Remote Denial of Service (DoS) and Unauthorized Access (HPSBUX02407 SSRT080107 rev.1)), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family HP-UX Local Security Checks and running in the context l.
Applying a patch is able to eliminate this problem. A possible mitigation has been published even before and not after the disclosure of the vulnerability.
