SCO Security Advisory

Subject: UnixWare 7.1.4 : Samba multiple security issues
Advisory number: SCOSA-2005.17
Issue date: 2005 February 11
Cross reference: sr892475 fz530644 erg712754 sr892165 fz530486 erg712735 CAN-2004-0930 CAN-2004-0882 CAN-2004-1154

1. Problem Description

Samba provides file and print services to windows clients.
Several security issues are fixed by this patch.

The ms_fnmatch function in Samba 3.0.4 and 3.0.7 and possibly
other versions allows remote authenticated users to cause
a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a SAMBA request
that contains multiple SCOSA-2005.17.in SCOSA-2005.17.txt
samba.pkg (wildcard) characters.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
has assigned the name CAN-2004-0930 to this issue.

Buffer overflow in the QFILEPATHINFO request handler in Samba
3.0.x through 3.0.7 may allow remote attackers to execute
arbitrary code via a TRANSACT2_QFILEPATHINFO request with
a small "maximum data bytes" value.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
has assigned the name CAN-2004-0882 to this issue.

Integer overflow in the Samba daemon (smbd) in Samba 2.x and
3.0.x through 3.0.9 allows remote authenticated users to cause
a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute
arbitrary code via a Samba request with a large number of
security descriptors that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
has assigned the name CAN-2004-1154 to this issue.
