IDA Pro IDB Loader Code Execution

high Nessus Plugin ID 69180

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host has an application installed that is affected by a code execution vulnerability.

Description

The version of IDA Pro, an interactive disassembler installed on the remote host, is between versions 6.1 and 6.7. It is, therefore, affected by a code execution vulnerability. A remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user into loading a specially crafted IDB (IDA database) file into IDA Pro, to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is mitigated by an IDA plugin (btval.plw), which was not detected.

Solution

Download and install the btval plugins (and any other included files) from the referenced vendor advisory.
