Detail

Revision Note: V1.2 (October 29, 2008): Corrected the impact of the workaround that deals with disabling the SNA RPC Service. Summary: This security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft Host Integration Server. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if an attacker sent a specially crafted Remote Procedure Call (RPC) request to an affected system. Customers who follow best practices and configure the SNA RPC service account to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than customers who configure the SNA RPC service account to have administrative user rights.

Title: HIS Command Execution Vulnerability
Description: Microsoft Host Integration Server (HIS) 2000, 2004, and 2006 does not limit RPC access to administrative functions, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary programs via a crafted SNA RPC message using opcode 1 or 6 to call the CreateProcess function, aka "HIS Command Execution Vulnerability."

Id Description
49068 Microsoft Host Integration Server (HIS) SNA RPC Request Remote Overflow

An overflow exists in Host Integration Server. The RPC interface fails to validate SNA RPC messages resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, a remote attacker can cause arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of integrity.
