Title: Orenosv HTTP/FTP Server CGISSI.EXE Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

Orenosv HTTP/FTP server is a HTTP/FTP/FTPS server suite available for Microsoft platforms. The server also supports SSI (.shtml) functionality.

Orenosv HTTP/FTP server is prone to a remote buffer overflow vulnerability that affects 'cgissi.exe'. This issue arises because the application fails to perform boundary checks prior to copying user-supplied data into sensitive process buffers.

Specifically, this issue presents itself when the application handles excessive values supplied through an SSI command name. The 'parse_cmd()' function performs an insecure copy operation and a buffer overflow condition can arise when a SSI command containing 120 or more bytes is handled.

A successful attack can result in memory corruption and can be leveraged to cause a denial of service condition or arbitrary code execution. Arbitrary code execution can result in a remote compromise in the context of the server.

Orenosv HTTP/FTP Server 0.8.1 is reportedly vulnerable, however, other versions may be affected as well.

Affected Products:

  • Orenosv Orenosv HTTP/FTP Server 0.8.1
