Description

Tim Wojtulewicz of Corelight reports:

A missing field in the SMB FSControl script-land record could

cause a heap buffer overflow when receiving packets containing

those header types.

Receiving a series of packets that start with HTTP/1.0

and then switch to HTTP/0.9 could cause Zeek to spend a

large amount of time processing the packets.

Receiving large numbers of FTP commands sequentially

from the network with bad data in them could cause Zeek

to spend a large amount of time processing the packets,

and generate a large amount of events.

Solution(s)

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
