Part I for this issue has been compiled by Josh Bronson at TippingPoint,
a division of HP, as a by-product of that company’s continuous effort
to ensure that its intrusion prevention products effectively block
exploits using known vulnerabilities. TippingPoint’s analysis is
complemented by input from a council of security managers from twelve
large organizations who confidentially share with SANS the specific
actions they have taken to protect their systems. A detailed description
of the process may be found at
http://www.sans.org/newsletters/risk/#process
Affected:
Samba versions prior to 3.4.0
Description: A patch has been released for Samba addressing a code
execution vulnerability in the Samba server. Samba provides an
open-source platform for file and print services over the SMB/CIFS
protocol used by Microsoft Windows operating systems. The SMB protocol
includes AndX messages, which contain SMB commands and an offset to the
next AndX block in memory. Samba does not verify that the messages are
monotonically increasing, so an attacker can cause SMB to enter a loop
with an offset that points to a previous AndX message. Eventually Samba
will overwrite a buffer on its heap. By sending a malicious request to
a Samba server, an attacker can exploit this vulnerability in order to
execute arbitrary code with root permissions on the target’s machine.
