Multiple Stack-based Buffer Overflow vulnerabilities exists in Sniffit
prior to 0.3.7 via a crafted configuration file that will bypass
Non-eXecutable bit NX, stack smashing protector SSP, and address space
layout randomization ASLR protection mechanisms, which could let a
malicious user execute arbitrary code.

Notes

Author Note
sbeattie sniffit is not setuid, so this issue only affects configurations where a user is only permitted to run a subset of administrative (e.g. using a sudo configuration that only allows a user to run sniffit).
