Bug#451385: CVE-2007-5398 remote code execution via NetBIOS replies

2007-11-15 Thread Nico Golde
Package: samba
Version: 3.0.24-6etch4
Severity: grave
Tags: security patch

Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for samba.

CVE-2007-5398:
| Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Samba, which can be
| exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
| 
| The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the 
| "reply_netbios_packet()" function in nmbd/nmbd_packets.c when sending
| NetBIOS replies. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer
| overflow by sending multiple specially crafted WINS "Name Registration"
| requests followed by a WINS "Name Query" request.
| 
| Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but
| requires that Samba is configured to run as a WINS server (the "wins
| support" option is enabled).

This information is from:
http://secunia.com/secunia_research/2007-90/advisory/

Mitre did not yet published it but it will be available later on [0].
Please also see: http://us1.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2007-4572.html
and 
http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/patches/security/samba-3.0.26a-CVE-2007-5398.patch
for the patch.

If you fix this vulnerability please also include the CVE id
in your changelog entry.

Thanks for caring to report. We were indeed aware of the issue as
upstream kindly keeps up posted before the unveil embargoed security
issues.

As a consequence, we are all working on fixes for sarge, etch, and
lenny.
