DESCRIPTION

The Sun Management Center product proposes a web site where
administrators authenticate.

The PRM (Performance Reporting Manager) module can be enabled on
SunMC.

When a web user wishes to authenticate and enters an empty
username and password, a memory area is not freed.

An attacker can therefore progressively use system resources, in
order to create a denial of service.
