RPC: Sun Solstice AdminSuite sadmind service adm_build_path Buffer Overflow

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

Extended Description

Sun Solstice AdminSuite is prone to a remote stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because the software fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input. Attackers can leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Successful exploits will compromise the application and the underlying computer. Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions. We don't know which specific versions of Solstice AdminSuite are affected, but versions for Solaris 8 and 9 are reported vulnerable. We will update this BID as more information emerges.
