Insight

Insight

Samba is an open-source implementation of the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol and the related Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocol, which allow PC-compatible machines to share files, printers, and various information. Security Fix(es): * A race condition was found in samba server. A malicious samba client could use this flaw to access files and directories in areas of the server file system not exported under the share definitions. (CVE-2017-2619) * It was found that samba did not enforce 'SMB signing' when certain configuration options were enabled. A remote attacker could launch a man-in-the-middle attack and retrieve information in plain-text. (CVE-2017-12150) * An information leak flaw was found in the way SMB1 protocol was implemented by Samba. A malicious client could use this flaw to dump server memory contents to a file on the samba share or to a shared printer, though the exact area of server memory cannot be controlled by the attacker. (CVE-2017-12163) Red Hat would like to thank the Samba project for reporting CVE-2017-2619 and CVE-2017-12150 and Yihan Lian and Zhibin Hu (Qihoo 360 GearTeam), Stefan Metzmacher (SerNet), and Jeremy Allison (Google) for reporting CVE-2017-12163. Upstream acknowledges Jann Horn (Google) as the original reporter of CVE-2017-2619 and Stefan Metzmacher (SerNet) as the original reporter of CVE-2017-12150.
