Official Description
Multiple "pointer overwrite" vulnerabilities in Ingres database server 2006 9.0.4, r3, 2.6, and 2.5, as used in multiple CA (formerly Computer Associates) products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending certain TCP data at different times to the Ingres Communications Server Process (iigcc), which calls the (1) QUinsert or (2) QUremove functions with attacker-controlled input.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2007-3336 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit exists for CVE-2007-3336. While not yet confirmed in active campaigns, the availability of PoC code increases exploitation risk substantially.
