Polycom BToE Connector up to version 2.3.0 allows unprivileged windows users to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges. We recommend to update Polycom BToE Connector to version 3.0.0 or later. For further details, see the full security advisory. Read More
The vulnerability is caused by a buffer overflow in a memcpy operation when parsing specailly crafted KNXnet/IP packets in the Group messages monitor (aka. Falcon). An according proof-of-concept exploit which was tested on an affected ETS version installed on a Windows XP SP3 can be found below. The proof-of-concept exploit generates the UDP packet which triggers the vulnerability and should at least crash the application (it requires python and scapy to run). Read More
Together with sipgate and ISMK Stralsund, Gabriel Gegenhuber, researcher at SBA Research and University of Vienna, and Michael Pucher, researcher at SBA research, discovered and investigated a vulnerability in the Voice of LTE (VoLTE) stack that is broadly used within MediaTek-based smartphones. ∞
In the Mediatek modem, there is a possible system crash due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to remote denial of service, if a UE has connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. ∞
