Detail

Mehdi Oudad and Kevin Fernandez discovered a buffer overflow in the ktools library which is used in motor, an integrated development environment for C, C++ and Java, which may lead local attackers to execute arbitrary code.

For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 3.2.2-2woody1.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 3.4.0-2sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 3.4.0-6.

We recommend that you upgrade your motor package.

Id Description
21161 ktools VGETSTRING Function Overflow

A local overflow exists in ktools. The 'VGETSTRING()' function fails to perform proper bounds checking resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, a malicious user can cause arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of integrity.
