Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.

1) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm

EUVDB-ID: #VU70384

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 7.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-45141

CWE-ID: CWE-327 - Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication.

The vulnerability exists due to an error that allows an attacker to force the server so issue an rc4-hmac ticket encrypted tickets despite the target server supporting better encryption (eg aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96). A remote attacker can perform an offline attack against the ticket encrypted with rc4-hmac and login as a privileged user.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

Vulnerable software versions

Samba: 4.15.0 - 4.15.12

CPE2.3 External links

https://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2022-45141.html


Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

How the attacker can exploit this vulnerability?

The attacker would have to send a specially crafted request to the affected application in order to exploit this vulnerability.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

2) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm

EUVDB-ID: #VU69151

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 7.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-38023

CWE-ID: CWE-254 - Security Features

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to security features bypass in Netlogon RPC. A remote attacker can bypass the Netlogon cryptography feature for signing and sealing traffic during Netlogon authentication.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

4) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

EUVDB-ID: #VU69094

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 7.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-37966

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly impose security restrictions in Windows Kerberos RC4-HMAC. A remote attacker can conduct a man-in-middle (MiTM) attack, which leads to security restrictions bypass and privilege escalation.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
