Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.

1) Improper input validation

EUVDB-ID: #VU10949

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1050

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing RPC requests to the spoolss service. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted RPC request to the affected service and trigger denial of service conditions.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that the RPC spoolss service services is configured as external daemon.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

3) Improper input validation

EUVDB-ID: #VU13557

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 6.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-11396

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The vulnerability exists in ephy-session.c in libephymain.so in GNOME Web (aka Epiphany) due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can supply JavaScript code, trigger access to a NULL URL, as demonstrated by a crafted window.open call and cause the service to crash.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

4) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU14333

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-10858

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in libsmbclientwhen processing a list of directory entries, received from the server. A remote attacker can trick the victim to connect to a malicious SMB server, send a long list of directory entries, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and crash the client or execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
