CVE-2007-5246 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-5246):
  Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in Firebird LI 2.0.0.12748 and
  2.0.1.12855, and WI 2.0.0.12748 and 2.0.1.12855, allow remote attackers to
  execute arbitrary code via (1) a long attach request on TCP port 3050 to the
  isc_attach_database function or (2) a long create request on TCP port 3050 to
  the isc_create_database function.

------- Comment #1 From Robert Buchholz 2007-10-12 01:45:06 0000 ------- 
We handled stabilization of 2.0.3 in bug 190833 and decided not to issue a
GLSA. Two new issues came up that might question this.
The first is confirmed for Linux, for the second I don't know.

William, can you advise here?

------- Comment #2 From William L. Thomson Jr. (RETIRED) 2007-10-12 13:55:29 0000 ------- 
If your asking about doing a GSLA or not. Hard call, but these look a bit more
serious than the others. As for the one mentioning fbserver.exe, I would assume
that would apply to linux as well. Obviously binary name would be different.
But should have same functions, and use. So exploit should be possible
regardless of OS for both. IMHO I will see if I can research this a bit to
confirm 100%. If not you all can go off this.

------- Comment #3 From Robert Buchholz 2007-11-28 11:25:36 0000 ------- 
somehow this slipped through our grid.
request filed.
