II. MICROSOFT VULNERABILITY SUMMARY
-----------------------------------
1. MollenSoft Lightweight FTP Server Remote Denial Of Service V...
BugTraq ID: 10409
Remote: Yes
Date Published: May 24 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10409
Summary:
A denial of service condition is reported to exist in the MollenSoft Lightweight FTP \
Server that may allow a remote user to deny service to legitimate FTP users. The \
vulnerability is due to a lack of sufficient boundary checks performed on CWD command \
arguments.

It should be noted that although this vulnerability is reported to affect Mollensoft \
Lightweight FTP Server version 3.6 other versions might also be affected.

2. MiniShare Server Remote Denial Of Service Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 10417
Remote: Yes
Date Published: May 26 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10417
Summary:
Minishare is affected by a remote denial of service vulnerability.  This issue is due \
to a failure of the application to handle improperly formed HTTP requests.

This issue will allow an attacker to cause the affected computer to stop responding, \
denying service to legitimate users.

3. Orenosv HTTP/FTP Server HTTP GET Denial Of Service Vulnerabi...
BugTraq ID: 10420
Remote: Yes
Date Published: May 26 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10420
Summary:
Orenosv HTTP/FTP server is prone to a denial of service vulnerability that may occur \
when an overly long HTTP GET request is sent to the server. When the malicious \
request is handled, it is reported that both the HTTP and FTP daemons will stop \
responding.

4. Subversion Pre-Commit-Hook Template Undisclosed Vulnerabilit...
BugTraq ID: 10428
Remote: No
Date Published: May 27 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10428
Summary:
Subversion is reported prone to an undisclosed vulnerability. The issue is reported \
to present itself due to an insecure implementation of the pre-commit-hook template.

This BID will be updated as soon as further information regarding this vulnerability \
becomes available.

5. MollenSoft Lightweight FTP Server Remote Buffer Overflow Vul...
BugTraq ID: 10429
Remote: Yes
Date Published: May 28 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10429
Summary:
Lightweight FTP Server is prone to a remote buffer overflow vulnerability.  This \
vulnerability can potentially allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code in \
the context of the server process.  This issue presents itself due to a lack of \
sufficient boundary checks performed on CD command arguments.

Lightweight FTP Server version 3.6 is prone to this issue.

This issue is likely related to the issue previously described in BID 10409 \
(MollenSoft Lightweight FTP Server Remote Denial Of Service Vulnerability).  This BID \
will be updated or retired subsequent to further analysis.

6. JPortal Print.php SQL Injection Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 10430
Remote: Yes
Date Published: May 28 2004
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10430
Summary:
JPortal is reportedly affected by a remote SQL injection vulnerability in the \
print.inc.php script.  This issue is due to a failure of the application to properly \
sanitize user-supplied URI input before using it in an SQL query.

As a result of this a malicious user may influence database queries in order to view \
or modify sensitive information, potentially compromising the software or the \
database. It may be possible for an attacker to disclose the administrator password \
hash by exploiting this issue.
