The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1600 for this issue.

It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability was handled as a non-public zero-day exploit for at least 63 days. During that time the estimated underground price was around $0-$5k. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 67826 (Oracle Linux 4 : evolution / evolution-data-server (ELSA-2009-0355)), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Oracle Linux Local Security Checks and running in the context l. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 155956 (Oracle Enterprise Linux Update for Evolution and Evolution Data Server (ELSA-2009-0355)).

Upgrading eliminates this vulnerability. A possible mitigation has been published 2 months after the disclosure of the vulnerability.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (49344), Tenable (67826), SecurityFocus (BID 33720†), OSVDB (52701†) and Secunia (SA33848†). Similar entry is available at VDB-47141. Several companies clearly confirm that VulDB is the primary source for best vulnerability data.
