OpenPKG-SA-2004.054 17-Dec-2004
________________________________________________________________________
Package: samba
Vulnerability: denial of service, arbitrary code execution
OpenPKG Specific: no
Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
OpenPKG CURRENT <= samba-3.0.9-20041119 >= samba-3.0.10-20041216
OpenPKG 2.2 <= samba-3.0.7-2.2.0 >= samba-3.0.7-2.2.1
OpenPKG 2.1 <= samba-3.0.4-2.1.2 >= samba-3.0.4-2.1.3
Dependent Packages: none
Description:
Several vulnerabilities exist in the Samba SMB/CIFS server [1]. The
OpenPKG team applied official patches where available and backported
others to address all known issues.
According to a security advisory [2] from Stefan Esser a
Unicode filename buffer overflow within the handling of
"TRANSACT2_QFILEPATHINFO" replies was discovered that allows remote
execution of arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
(CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2004-0882 [4] to the problem.
A problem in the ms_fnmatch() function allows remote authenticated
users to consume excessive CPU horsepower and cause a denial of
service via a SMB request that contains multiple asterisk characters.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
CAN-2004-0930 [5] to the problem.
According to a security advisory [3] from the Samba team, an integer
overflow vulnerability in the "smbd" daemon could allow an attacker
to cause controllable heap corruption, leading to execution of
arbitrary commands with root privileges. The Common Vulnerabilities
and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2004-1154 [6] to the
problem.
Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/openpkg
rpm -q samba". If you have the "samba" package installed and its
version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately
upgrade it (see Solution) [7][8].
Solution:
Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
[9][10], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [11][12] or a mirror
location, verify its integrity [13], build a corresponding binary RPM
from it [7] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
binary RPM [8]. For the most recent release OpenPKG 2.2, perform the
following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
other releases adjust accordingly).
$ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
ftp> bin
ftp> cd release/2.2/UPD
ftp> get samba-3.0.7-2.2.1.src.rpm
ftp> bye
$ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig samba-3.0.7-2.2.1.src.rpm
$ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild samba-3.0.7-2.2.1.src.rpm
$ su -
# <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/samba-3.0.7-2.2.1.*.rpm
