stratsec Security Advisory: SS-2010-005
===============================================================================
Title: Samba Multiple DoS Vulnerabilities
Version: 1.0
Issue type: Multiple
Affected vendor: Samba
Release date: 12/05/2010
Discovered by: Laurent Gaffié
Issue status: Patch available
===============================================================================
Summary
-------
Two vulnerabilities were discovered within in the Samba Smbd daemon which
allow
an attacker to trigger a null pointer dereference or an uninitialized variable
read by sending a specific 'Sessions Setup AndX' query. Successful
exploitation
of these issues will result in a denial of service.
Description
-----------
The Server Message Block (SMB) protocol, also known as Common Internet File
System (CIFS) acts as an application-layer protocol to provide shared access
to
files, printers and Inter-Process Communication (IPC). It is also a transport
for Distributed Computing Environment / Remote Procedure Call (DCE / RPC)
operations. After negotiating an SMB communication the client sends a
'Session Setup AndX' packet to negotiate a session in order to be able to
connect on a specific share.
To trigger the null pointer dereference, the client needs to send a crafted
SMB
'Negotiate Protocol' query with the SMB header 'Flags2' set to '0x0003'
(no Unicode), followed by a Session Setup AndX request with the SMB header
'Flags2' set to '0x8003' (Unicode). This sequence will result in a crash
within
the Smbd process.
The uninitialised Variable Read issue, can be triggered if the client sends a
crafted 'Session Setup AndX' with a 'security blob length' value set to
'\xff\xff'.
Impact
------
A remote attacker can cause a denial of service within the Samba daemon
Affected products
-----------------
Samba <=3.4.7 and Samba <= 3.5.1
Proof of concept
----------------
To trigger the uninitialised variable read issue, the following Python
proof of concept is available:

from socket import *
if len(sys.argv)<=1:
sys.exit('Usage: python smbd.py 10.0.0.12')
