CVE-2005-0807

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Cain & Abel versions prior to 2.67

Description The issue is related to multiple buffer overflows that can be triggered by remote attackers, potentially leading to a denial of service (application crash) and possibly the execution of arbitrary code. This can occur through various sniffer filters, including the PSK sniffer filter when handling an IKE packet with a large ID field, the HTTP sniffer filter, and other filters such as POP3, SMTP, IMAP, NNTP, or TDS.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.67, update to version 2.67 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the sniffer filters until the update can be applied.
