CASA: buffer overflow

Package(s):CASA CVE #(s):CVE-2006-0736
Created:February 22, 2006 Updated:February 22, 2006
Description: The pam_micasa module from the CASA authentication system suffers from a remotely exploitable buffer overflow. "Since this module is added to /etc/pam.d/sshd automatically on installation of CASA it was possible for remote attackers to gain root access to any machine with CASA installed." If you are using CASA, fixing this one in a hurry would be a good idea.
