Citrix Metaframe Presentation Server Print Provider Buffer Overflow
Vulnerability
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
A vulnerability in Citrix Metaframe Presentation Servera allows attackers
to cause a buffer overflow in the Printer Provider which in turn can be
used to execute arbitrary code.
DETAILS
Vulnerable Systems:
* Citrix Presentation Server version 4.0
* Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Server version 3.0
* Citrix MetaFrame XP version 1.0
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
systems with vulnerable installations of Citrix Presentation Server,
Metaframe Presentation Server or MetaFrame XP. Authentication is not
required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists in a print provider installed by the Presentation
Server. The cpprov.dll library doesn't properly handle certain invalid
calls to the EnumPrintersW() and OpenPrinter() functions. For example,
passing a string of 130 or more characters in the first argument to the
OpenPrinter() function results in a stack-based buffer overflow and can be
leveraged to execute code in the context of the Spooler service, which
runs as the privileged LocalSystem account.
