Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions RIM Blackberry 7230 version 3.7 SP1

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, potentially leading to device reboot and data corruption, by sending a calendar message with a long Location field. This triggers a watchdog while the message is being stored.

Recommendations For RIM Blackberry 7230 version 3.7 SP1, consider restricting the length of the Location field in calendar messages to prevent the denial of service. As a temporary workaround, avoid using long Location fields in calendar messages until a fix is available.
