Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
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
DescriptionThe 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.

CWE-ID:
CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

EUVDB-ID: #VU45628
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 9.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:H/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1472
CWE-ID:
CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe 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.

CVSSv3.1: 4 [CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-20254
CWE-ID:
CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when mapping Windows group identities (SIDs) into unix group identities (gids), which resulted into negative idmap cache entries created in the Samba server process token. An attacker who can manage to trigger the vulnerability can crash the Samba server or potentially perform unauthorized actions on the system.
