Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.

1) 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.

Vulnerable software versions

samba (Red Hat package): 4.11.6-104.el7rhgs - 4.11.6-107.el7rhgs

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote authenticated user via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

2) 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.

3) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

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

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.

4) Out-of-bounds read

EUVDB-ID: #VU52748

Risk: Medium

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

Description

The 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.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
