Denial of service in Novell Client for Windows

Madrid, December 5 2006 - A vulnerability has been reported in Novell Client for Windows, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service condition.

The flaw stems from an error in the ˝srvloc.sys˝ component, which cannot correctly handle specially malformed requests sent to port 427.
This could be exploited by attackers to crash vulnerable applications, causing a denial of service.

Users are advised to upgrade Novell Client for Windows to version 4.91 SP3, available at: http://download.novell.com/index.jsp . More information at http://www.frsirt.com/english/advisories/2006/4840   and https://secure-support.novell.com/KanisaPlatform/Publishing/859/3480790_f.SAL_Public.html.
