Nortel Communication Server 1000 4.50.x allows remote attackers to obtain Web application structure via unknown vectors related to "web resources to phones and administrators."

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Nortel Communication Server 1000 4.50.x allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands to gain privileges, obtain sensitive information, or cause a denial of service via unknown vectors.

Nortel MG1000S, Signaling Server, and Call Server on the Communications Server 1000 (CS1K) 4.50.x contain multiple unspecified hard-coded accounts and passwords, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges.

Unspecified vulnerability in the "session limitation technique" in the FTP service on Nortel Communications Server 1000 (CS1K) 4.50.x, when running on VGMC or signaling nodes, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion and failed updates) via unknown vectors that causes consumption of all available sessions.

Nortel UNIStim protocol, as used in Communication Server 1000 and other products, uses predictable sequence numbers, which allows remote attackers to hijack sessions via sniffing or brute force attacks.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the UNIStim File Transfer Protocol (UFTP) processing in IP Client Manager (IPCM) in Nortel Multimedia Communication Server (MSC) 5100 3.0.13 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device outage) via a UFTP message that has a negative block size or other crafted Connection Details values.

Nortel Multimedia Communication Server (MSC) 5100 3.0.13 does not verify credentials during call placement, which allows remote attackers to spoof and redirect VoIP calls, possibly related to the snoop command.

Nortel Networks UNIStim IP Phone 0604DAS allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a long ping packet ("ping of death"). NOTE: this issue could not be reproduced by a third party, who tested it on 0604DAD. In addition, the original researcher was not able to reliably reproduce the issue.

Nortel SIP Multimedia PC Client 4.x MCS5100 and MCS5200 does not limit the number of concurrent sessions, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a large number of sessions.

Buffer overflow in the Multimedia PC Client in Nortel Multimedia Communication Server (MCS) before Maintenance Release 3.5.8.3 and 4.0.25.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a flood of "extraneous" messages, as demonstrated by the Nessus "Generic flood" denial of service plugin.

The Nortel UNIStim IP Softphone 2050, IP Phone 1140E, and additional Nortel products from the IP Phone, Business Communications Manager (BCM), and other product lines, use only 65536 different values in the 32-bit ID number field of an RUDP datagram, which makes it easier for remote attackers to guess the RUDP ID and spoof messages. NOTE: this can be leveraged for an eavesdropping attack by sending many Open Audio Stream messages.

The Nortel UNIStim IP Softphone 2050, IP Phone 1140E, and other Nortel IP Phone, Mobile Voice Client, and WLAN Handsets products allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device hang) via a flood of Mute and UnMute messages that have a spoofed source IP address for the Signaling Server.

The Nortel UNIStim IP Softphone 2050, IP Phone 1140E, and additional Nortel products from the IP Phone, Business Communications Manager (BCM), Mobile Voice Client, and other product lines, allow remote attackers to block calls and force re-registration via a resume message to the Signaling Server that has a spoofed source IP address for the phone. NOTE: the attack is more disruptive if a new spoofed resume message is sent after each re-registration.

The Nortel UNIStim IP Softphone 2050, IP Phone 1140E, and additional Nortel products from the IP Phone, Business Communications Manager (BCM), and other product lines allow remote attackers to eavesdrop on the physical environment via an Open Audio Stream message that enables "surveillance mode." NOTE: issues relating to a small ID number space can be leveraged to make this attack easier.

Buffer overflow in the Nortel UNIStim IP Softphone 2050 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application abort) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a flood of invalid characters to the RTCP port (5678/udp) that triggers a Windows error message, aka "extraneous messaging."

The CS1000 signaling server in Nortel Enterprise VoIP-Core-CS 1000M Chassis/Cabinet, Enterprise VoIP-Core-CS 1000E and 1000S, Meridian-Core-Option 11C Chassis and Cabinet, and Meridian-Core-Option 51C, 61C, and 81C allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (telephony application outage) via a flood of packets to Embedded LAN (ELAN) ports.

Nortel Contivity VPN Client 2.1.7, 3.00, 3.01, 4.91, and 5.01, when opening a VPN tunnel, does not check the gateway certificate until after a dialog box has been displayed to the user, which creates a race condition that allows remote attackers to perform a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.

Nortel Wireless LAN (WLAN) Access Point (AP) 2220, 2221, and 2225 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (service crash) via a TCP request with a large string, followed by 8 newline characters, to (1) the Telnet service on TCP port 23 and (2) the HTTP service on TCP port 80, possibly due to a buffer overflow.

The Windows Animated Cursor (ANI) capability in Windows NT, Windows 2000 through SP4, Windows XP through SP1, and Windows 2003 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via (1) the frame number set to zero, which causes an invalid memory address to be used and leads to a kernel crash, or (2) the rate number set to zero, which leads to resource exhaustion and hang.

The DHTML Edit Control (dhtmled.ocx) allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script into other domains by setting a name for a window, opening a child page whose target is the window with the given name, then injecting the script from the parent into the child using execScript, as demonstrated by "AbusiveParent" in Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180.
