Advisory Text : -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ________________________________________________________________________ ______ SCO Security Advisory Subject: OpenServer 6.0.0 : TCP Remote ICMP Denial Of Service Vulnerabilities Advisory number: SCOSA-2005.38 Issue date: 2005 September 22 Cross reference: sr894918 fz530661 erg712928 CAN-2004-0790 CAN-2004-0791 CAN-2004-1060 ________________________________________________________________________ ______ 1. Problem Description The Internet Control Message Protocol is used to alert hosts on a network about certain situations, and the hosts then take automatic action to prevent network failures or to improve transport efficiency. The RFC recommends no security checking for in-bound ICMP messages, so long as a related connection exists, and may potentially allow several different Denials of Service. The following individual attacks are reported: A blind connection-reset attack is reported, which takes advantage of the specification that describes that on receiving a 'hard' ICMP error, the corresponding connection should be aborted. A remote attacker may terminate target TCP connections and deny service for legitimate users. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0790 to this issue. An ICMP Source Quench attack is reported, which exploits the specification that a host must react to ICMP Source Quench messages by slowing transmission on the associated connection. A remote attacker may effectively degrade performance for a legitimate connection. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0791 to this issue. A suitable forged ICMP PMTUD message may be used to reduce the MTU for a given connection in a similar manner. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-1060 to this issue. 2.
