It has been reported that Sun Solstice X.25 may be prone to a buffer overflow vulnerability due to insufficient boundary checking by snmpx25d daemon. An attacker may leverage the issue by exploiting an unbounded memory copy operation to overwrite the saved return address/base pointer, causing the affected procedure to return to an address of their choice. Successful exploitation of this issue may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the daemon in order to gain unauthorized access to a vulnerable system. This issue is related to previously released BIDs 4088 and 4089. Sun Solstice X.25 version 9.2 and prior have been reported to be prone to this issue, however other versions may be vulnerable as well.
