DBManager in Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9.x before DS 6.9 SP4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted request.

The awhost32 service in Symantec pcAnywhere through 12.5.3, Altiris IT Management Suite pcAnywhere Solution 7.0 (aka 12.5.x) and 7.1 (aka 12.6.x), Altiris Client Management Suite pcAnywhere Solution 7.0 (aka 12.5.x) and 7.1 (aka 12.6.x), and Altiris Deployment Solution Remote pcAnywhere Solution 7.1 (aka 12.5.x and 12.6.x) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a crafted TCP session on port 5631.

Symantec pcAnywhere through 12.5.3, Altiris IT Management Suite pcAnywhere Solution 7.0 (aka 12.5.x) and 7.1 (aka 12.6.x), Altiris Client Management Suite pcAnywhere Solution 7.0 (aka 12.5.x) and 7.1 (aka 12.6.x), and Altiris Deployment Solution Remote pcAnywhere Solution 7.1 (aka 12.5.x and 12.6.x) allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash or hang) via (1) malformed data from a client, (2) malformed data from a server, or (3) an invalid response.

Symantec pcAnywhere through 12.5.3, Altiris IT Management Suite pcAnywhere Solution 7.0 (aka 12.5.x) and 7.1 (aka 12.6.x), Altiris Client Management Suite pcAnywhere Solution 7.0 (aka 12.5.x) and 7.1 (aka 12.6.x), and Altiris Deployment Solution Remote pcAnywhere Solution 7.1 (aka 12.5.x and 12.6.x) do not properly handle the client state after abnormal termination of a remote session, which allows remote attackers to obtain access to the client by leveraging an "open client session."

The Altiris eXpress NS SC Download ActiveX control in AeXNSPkgDLLib.dll, as used in Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9.x, Notification Server 6.0.x, and Symantec Management Platform 7.0.x exposes an unsafe method, which allows remote attackers to force the download of arbitrary files and possibly execute arbitrary code via the DownloadAndInstall method.

Buffer overflow in the RunCmd method in the Altiris eXpress NS Console Utilities ActiveX control in AeXNSConsoleUtilities.dll in the web console in Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9.x, Altiris Notification Server 6.0.x, and Management Platform 7.0.x allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string in the second argument.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the BrowseAndSaveFile method in the Altiris eXpress NS ConsoleUtilities ActiveX control 6.0.0.1846 in AeXNSConsoleUtilities.dll in Symantec Altiris Notification Server (NS) 6.0 before R12, Deployment Server 6.8 and 6.9 in Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9 SP3, and Symantec Management Platform (SMP) 7.0 before SP3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string in the second argument.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown client-side attack vectors, as demonstrated by a certain module in VulnDisco Pack Professional 7.17, as identified by (1) "Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9 exploit, (2) "Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9 exploit (II)," and (3) "Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9 exploit (III)." NOTE: as of 20090909, this disclosure has no actionable information. However, because the VulnDisco Pack author is a reliable researcher, the issue is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.

Unspecified vulnerability in mm.exe in Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via unknown attack vectors, as demonstrated by a certain module in VulnDisco Pack Professional 7.18, "Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9 DoS." NOTE: as of 20090909, this disclosure has no actionable information. However, because the VulnDisco Pack author is a reliable researcher, the issue is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.

Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.9.x before 6.9 SP3 Build 430 does not properly restrict access to the listening port for the DBManager service, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and modify tasks or the Altiris Database via a connection to this service.
