CERT-In Vulnerability Note CIVN-2003-0012
Buffer Overflow in Oracle Database Server Binaries

Original Issue Date:October 29, 2003

Severity Rating: MEDIUM

Systems Affected

  • Oracle9i Release 2, Version 9.2.x.
  • Oracle9i Release 1, Version 9.0.x.

hosted on all supported variants of Unix/Linux.

Overview

A malicious user can cause buffer overflow by executing 'Oracle' and 'OracleO' binary files with a very long command line parameter. Some exploit code can then be run by the user resulting in compromise of the database server and the operating system hosting the database server.

Impact

This buffer overflow allows a malicious user to run the program to get 'Oracle' owner privileges, execute arbitrary code under these privileges and compromise the database server. The underlying operating system may also get compromised by the malicious user causing the buffer overflow.
