CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1472

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly impose security restrictions in Netlogon. A remote non-authenticated attacker can use MS-NRPC to connect to a domain controller to obtain domain administrator access. This vulnerability was dubbed ZeroLogon.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

2) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

EUVDB-ID: #VU47990

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 3.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-14318

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to the way "ChangeNotify" concept for SMB1/2/3 protocols was implemented in Samba. A missing permissions check on a directory handle requesting ChangeNotify means that a client with a directory handle open only for FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES (minimal access rights) could be used to obtain change notify replies from the server. These replies contain information that should not be available to directory handles open for FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTE only. A local unprivileged user can abuse this lack of permissions check to obtain information about file changes.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

3) NULL pointer dereference

EUVDB-ID: #VU47991

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-14323

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error when processing requests in winbind in Samba. A remote user can send specially crafted request to winbind daemon, trigger a NULL pointer dereference error and crash it.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
