Vulnerability Spotlight: Intel Raid Web Console 3 denial-of-service bugs

Summary: Cisco Talos discovered two denial-of-service vulnerabilities in the web API of Intel RAID Web Console 3, a web application for configuring, monitoring and troubleshooting Intel RAID controllers and storage expanders. Both bugs are triggered by a malicious POST request from a remote unauthenticated attacker: one causes a null pointer dereference that denies service until LSA.exe is restarted, and the other causes the LSA.exe service to exit.

Bottom line: Both flaws are reachable by an unauthenticated attacker over the network with nothing more than a crafted POST request, and recovery from the first depends on someone manually restarting LSA.exe.
