TITLE:
Mandiant First Response Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA23393

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/23393/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Hijacking, DoS

WHERE:
>From local network

SOFTWARE:
First Response 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/11455/

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Mandiant First Response,
which can be exploited by malicious, local users to cause a DoS
(Denial of Service) and manipulate data, and by malicious people to
cause a DoS.

1) An error exists in the First Response agent (FRagent.exe) running
in daemon mode, when certain exceptions are handled. This can be
exploited to set the agent's socket to an indefinite CLOSE_WAIT state
and therefore disable the service by sending specially crafted
requests to an SSL enabled agent.

2) If a First Response agent (FRagent.exe) is bound to a 0.0.0.0
wildcard address ("all interfaces"), it is possible for a malicious
process to hijack an agent and intercept connections by binding to
the same port on a specific IP address. This can be exploited to
cause a DoS (HTTP or SSL agent) or to manipulate response data sent
to the client (HTTP agent).

This can further be exploited to send specially crafted HTTP
responses that force the client to visit arbitrary URLs or download
arbitrary content, but requires the use of HTTP (not the default
setting).

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 1.1.1.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.1.1.
