1) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

EUVDB-ID: #VU45628

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 9.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1472

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

Exploit availability: Yes

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

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

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

Yes. This vulnerability is being exploited in the wild.

2) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

EUVDB-ID: #VU47990

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-14318

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

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to the way "ChangeNotify" concept for SMB1/2/3 protocols was implemented in Samba. A missing permissions check on a directory handle requesting ChangeNotify means that a client with a directory handle open only for FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES (minimal access rights) could be used to obtain change notify replies from the server. These replies contain information that should not be available to directory handles open for FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTE only. A local unprivileged user can abuse this lack of permissions check to obtain information about file changes.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

3) NULL pointer dereference

EUVDB-ID: #VU47991

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 4.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Exploit availability: No

Description
