Title: Novell Client Denial of Service Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
Novell client versions 3.0 and 3.01 for Windows platforms are vulnerable to a remotely exploitable vulnerability which could cause a denial of service. The client opens a listening tcp socket on port 427, to which if a SYN is sent, results in the machine locking with a "blue screen" error. The only solution from that point is to reset the affected computer.
Affected Products:
- Novell Client 3.0.0
- Novell Client 3.0.1
