APP: Novell iManager Create Attribute EnteredAttrName Buffer Overflow

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the Novell iManager. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the affected application.

Extended Description

Novell iManager is prone to a stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data. Attackers may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM-level privileges. Successful exploits will completely compromise affected computers. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. Versions prior to Novell iManager 2.7.4 are vulnerable.
