Synopsis
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in ConnMan, allowing
attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause Denial of Service.
2.
Impact Information
Background
ConnMan provides a daemon for managing Internet connections.
Description
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in ConnMan:
- Errors in inet.c and rtnl.c prevent ConnMan from checking the origin
of netlink messages (CVE-2012-2320).
- ConnMan does not properly check for shell escapes when requesting a
hostname via DHCP (CVE-2012-2321).
- An infinite loop error exists in client.c (CVE-2012-2322).
Impact
A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the process or cause a Denial of Service condition.
