CVE-1999-1075
5.0
Vector
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
Exploitability: 10.0 / Impact: 2.9
Source: NVD
Description
inetd in AIX 4.1.5 dynamically assigns a port N when starting ttdbserver (ToolTalk server), but also inadvertently listens on port N-1 without passing control to ttdbserver, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a large number of connections to port N-1, which are not properly closed by inetd.
