Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Cleartext transmission of sensitive information (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26560)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to software uses insecure communication channel to transmit sensitive information within the synoagentregisterd server finder functionality. A remote attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle attack and gain access to sensitive data.


2) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26561)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing "syno_finder_site" HTTP header. A remote unauthenticated attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle attack, trigger stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


3) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26562)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing "syno_finder_site" HTTP header. A remote attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle attack, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


4) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26563)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions in AppArmor’s synosearchagent profile. A local administrator can use a specially crafted kernel module to bypass the AppArmor’s restrictions.


5) Cleartext transmission of sensitive information (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26564)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to software uses insecure communication channel to transmit sensitive information in synorelayd. A remote attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle attack to spoof servers via an HTTP session.


6) Cleartext transmission of sensitive information (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26565)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to software uses insecure communication channel to transmit sensitive information in synorelayd. A remote attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle attack to obtain sensitive information via an HTTP session.


7) Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26566)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insertion of sensitive information into sent data issue in synorelayd. A remote attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle attack to execute arbitrary commands via inbound QuickConnect traffic.
