Samba NDR RPC Request LsarAddPrivilegesToAccount Heap-Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Samba is prone to a remote heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer.

An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with superuser privileges, facilitating the complete remote compromise of affected computers. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial of service.

This issue affects Samba 3.0.25rc3 and prior versions.

This BID previously documented multiple heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerabilities affecting Samba. Each issue has been assigned its own individual record. The issues are covered in this BID and the following records:

BID 24195 - Samba NDR RPC Request LsarLookupSids/LsarLookupSids2 Heap-Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BID 24196 - Samba NDR RPC Request NetSetFileSecurity Heap-Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BID 24197 - Samba NDR RPC Request RFNPCNEX Heap-Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BID 24198 - Samba NDR RPC Request DFSEnum Heap-Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
