Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains one medium risk vulnerability.

1) Out-of-bounds read

EUVDB-ID: #VU52748

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 0.5 [CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-20254

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when mapping Windows group identities (SIDs) into unix group identities (gids), which resulted into negative idmap cache entries created in the Samba server process token. An attacker who can manage to trigger the vulnerability can crash the Samba server or potentially perform unauthorized actions on the system.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
