Subject: Wildcard exportfs issue in NFS on IRIX

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

______________________________________________________________________________

                          SGI Security Advisory

Title:      Wildcard exportfs issue in NFS
Number:     20031004-01-P
Date:       October, 28 2003
Reference:  SGI BUG 902105
Reference:  CVE CAN-2003-0683
Fixed in:   Future release of IRIX or patches 5351 and 5352

- --- Issue Specifics ---
- -----------------------

It has been reported on IRIX 6.5.21m/f when any of the root,rw or
access options in /etc/exports contains only wildcards (IP addresses
or domain suffixes) and no explicit hostnames or netgroups, the NFS
server has the potential to ignore access checks with some configurations.

This vulnerability was assigned the following CVE candidate:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2003-0683

SGI has investigated the issue and recommends the following steps for
neutralizing the exposure.  It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that these measures

be implemented on ALL vulnerable SGI systems.  This issue has been
corrected in future releases of IRIX.


- --------------
- --- Impact ---
- --------------

To determine the version of IRIX you are running, execute the following
command:

  # /bin/uname -R

That will return a result similar to the following:

  # 6.5 6.5.21f

The first number ("6.5") is the release name, the second ("6.5.21f" in
this case) is the extended release name.  The extended release name
is the "version" we refer to throughout this document.


- --------------------------
- -- Temporary Workaround --
- --------------------------

The temporary workaround is to make sure that 'localhost' is added
at the beginning of the list of hosts being exported to.  For example,
if you have in /etc/exports:

/some/filesystem        -access={some wildcard}

then change it to:

/some/filesystem        -access=localhost:{some wildcard}


- ----------------
- --- Solution ---
- ----------------

SGI has provided a series of patches for these vulnerabilities. Our
recommendation is to upgrade to IRIX 6.5.22, or install the appropriate
patch.
