Qinghao Tang of QIHU 360 reports: The function lookupProviders() in sblim-sfcb of version 1.3.4 and 1.3.18 exists a null dereference vulnerability , a remote attacher can cause a denial of servise (sblim-sfcb crash) via a crafted packet without "className" info. Let`s see how this issue happened,the code below is from ./sblim-sfcb-1.3.18/providerMgr.c : static UtilList *lookupProviders(long type, char *className, char *nameSpace, CMPIStatus *st) { UtilList *lst; UtilHashTable **ht=provHt(type,1); char *id; int rc; _SFCB_ENTER(TRACE_PROVIDERMGR, "lookupProviders"); //here, className should be checked id=(char*)malloc(strlen(nameSpace)+strlen(className)+8); strcpy(id,nameSpace); strcat(id,"|"); ... }
