TITLE:
EnterpriseDB Advanced Server Code Execution Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA26640

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/26640/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From local network

SOFTWARE:
EnterpriseDB Advanced Server 8.x
http://secunia.com/product/15566/

DESCRIPTION:
Joxean Koret has reported a vulnerability in EnterpriseDB Advanced
Server, which can be exploited by malicious users to cause a DoS
(Denial of Service) and potentially compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to the use of uninitialized pointers
within debugging functions (e.g. "pldbg_get_stack()") that are called
before calling the "pldbg_create_listener()" function. This can be
exploited to crash the vulnerable server and potentially execute
arbitrary code by executing certain queries (e.g. "select
pldbg_abort_target()").

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is reported in version 8.2. Prior versions may also
be affected.

SOLUTION:
The vendor reportedly released a patch, which is available to
EnterpriseDB Advanced Server customers.
