TITLE:
Fenice HTTP Request Handling Two Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA19770

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/19770/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Fenice 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/9505/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported two vulnerabilities in Fenice, which can
be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service)
and potentially to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) A boundary error exists within the parsing of the RTSP URL
received from a client. This can be exploited to cause a buffer
overflow and may allow arbitrary code execution.

2) An input validation error exists within the handling of the
Content-Length HTTP header received from a client. This can be
exploited to cause out-of-bounds memory access, which crashes the
server via an overly large Content-Length value.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 1.10 and in the CVS
version dated 2005-07-26. Prior versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
A patch will reportedly be released soon.

Restrict access to trusted users only.
