TITLE:
SynCE vdccm Denial of Service and Command Injection

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA29228

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/29228/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From local network

SOFTWARE:
SynCE vdccm 0.x
http://secunia.com/product/17900/

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in SynCE vdccm, which can be
exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and
compromise a vulnerable system.

1) An error can be exploited to cause a DoS via certain unspecified
vectors.

2) The vdccm daemon does not properly sanitise the names of
connecting devices before using them to call external commands. This
can be exploited to e.g. execute arbitrary shell commands with the
privileges of the vdccm daemon by connecting and sending a specially
crafted device name containing shell meta characters.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 0.10.1.
