Perforce Server Denial of Service Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA29231

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/29231/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
DoS

WHERE:
>From local network

SOFTWARE:
Perforce Server 2007.x
http://secunia.com/product/17871/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered some vulnerabilities in Perforce
Server, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS
(Denial of Service).

1) NULL-pointer dereference errors in the Perforce service (p4s.exe)
when handling certain commands (e.g. dm-FaultFile and dm-LazyCheck)
can be exploited to cause the service to crash via specially crafted
packets sent to default port 1666/TCP.

2) Errors in the Perforce service when handling certain commands
(e.g. server-DiffFile) can be exploited to cause the service to crash
or consume large amounts of memory via specially crafted packets sent
to default port 1666/TCP.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2007.3/143793 on
Windows. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict network access to the service.
