IBM solidDB < 4.5.182 / 6.0.1069 / 6.3.49 / 6.5.0.4 Denial of Service
Medium Nessus Plugin ID 53812
Synopsis
The remote database server is affected by two denial of service vulnerabilities.
Description
According to its version number, the solidDB install on the remote host is affected by two denial of service vulnerabilities due to a flaw in the way the application handles the 'rpc_test_svc_readwrite' and and 'rpc_test_svc_done'procesure commands.
A remote unauthenticated attacker can leverage these issues to cause the application to de-reference a NULL pointer and subsequently crash.
Solution
Upgrade to IBM solidDB 4.5.182, 6.0.1069, 6.3 Fix Pack 8, 6.5 Fix Pack 4, or later.
