DB: Sybase SQL Anywhere MobiLink Crafted Strings Buffer Overflow

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Sybase MobiLink. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the server.

Extended Description

Sybase MobiLink is prone to multiple heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data. A successful exploit will allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected software. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in denial-of-service conditions. These issues affect MobiLink 10.0.1.3629; prior versions may also be affected.
