Solaris rpc.ttdbserver Denial of Service vulnerability
22 Nov. 1999
Summary
It is possible to crash rpc.ttdbserver by using the old tddbserver buffer overflow exploit. This problem is caused by a NULL pointer being dereferenced when rpc function 15 is called with garbage. You cannot make rpc.ttdbserver execute arbitrary code with this vulnerability, therefore the consequence of this vulnerability is a denial of service condition.
