CVE-2003-0797: n/a vulnerability

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2003-0797 is a remote denial-of-service issue in SGI IRIX rpc.mountd. An attacker could cause the mount daemon process to die, potentially disrupting NFS file sharing on affected legacy systems. Public details do not describe the exact attack vector. Exposure is most likely on legacy SGI IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.22 systems running NFS services with rpc.mountd reachable from untrusted networks. Treat this as a legacy-system availability risk. It is not known to be actively exploited, but exposed NFS services on unsupported IRIX systems can create business disruption risk and should be isolated or remediated. Mitigation focus: Identify any SGI IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.22 systems still in operation.; Review the referenced SGI security advisories for applicable patches or vendor guidance.; Restrict NFS and rpc.mountd exposure to trusted administrative and client networks..
