Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.

1) Memory corruption

EUVDB-ID: #VU5310

Risk: Critical

CVSSv3.1: 9.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:F/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2014-6277

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect parsing of environment variables. A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system as demonstrated by vectors involving the ForceCommand feature in OpenSSH sshd, the mod_cgi and mod_cgid modules in the Apache HTTP Server, scripts executed by unspecified DHCP clients, and other situations in which setting the environment occurs across a privilege boundary from Bash execution. The vulnerability was introduced by incorrect patching of vulnerabilities #1 (CVE-2014-6271) and #2 (CVE-2014-7169).

Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: this vulnerability was being actively exploited in the wild.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, a fully functional exploit for this vulnerability is available.

2) Memory corruption

EUVDB-ID: #VU5327

Risk: Critical

CVSSv3.1: 9.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:F/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2014-7186

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The weakness exists due to out-of-bounds memory access while handling multiple "<<EOF" declarations. A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code.

Exploitation example: 

bash -c 'true <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF' ||  echo "CVE-2014-7186 vulnerable, redir_stack"

Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: this vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Mitigation

3) Off-by-one error

EUVDB-ID: #VU5328

Risk: Critical

CVSSv3.1: 9.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:F/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2014-7187

CWE-ID: CWE-193 - Off-by-one Error

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The weakness exists due to off-by-one-error when handling deeply nested flow control constructs. A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Exploitation example: 

(for x in {1..200} ; do echo "for x$x in ; do :"; done; for x in {1..200} ; do echo done ; done) | bash ||
echo "CVE-2014-7187 vulnerable, word_lineno"

Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: this vulnerability was being actively exploited.
