Details
A vulnerability in Samba could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to
execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied
input by the affected software. An attacker who has access to a writable
share on a targeted system could upload malicious, shared libraries to the
writable share. When the targeted system loads and execute the malicious,
shared libraries, the attacker could execute arbitrary code, which could
be used to conduct further attacks.
Indicators of Compromise
To help detect exploitation of this vulnerability, Cisco has released Snort
rules with SIDs 43002 through 43004. The alert is generated by SID 43004.
Workarounds
Any workarounds, if available, are documented in the Cisco bugs, which
are accessible through the Cisco Bug Search Tool.
Fixed Software
When Cisco releases free software updates, customers may only install and
expect support for software versions and feature sets for which they have
purchased a license. By installing, downloading, accessing, or otherwise
using such software upgrades, customers agree to follow the terms of the
Cisco software license:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/general/warranty/English/EU1KEN_.html
Additionally, customers may only download software for which they have a
valid license, procured from Cisco directly, or through a Cisco authorized
reseller or partner. In most cases this will be a maintenance upgrade to
software that was previously purchased. Free security software updates
do not entitle customers to a new software license, additional software
feature sets, or major revision upgrades.
When considering software upgrades, customers are advised to regularly
consult the advisories for Cisco products, which are available from the
Cisco Security Advisories and Alerts page, to determine exposure and a
complete upgrade solution.
In all cases, customers should ensure that the devices to upgrade
contain sufficient memory and confirm that current hardware and software
configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new release. If
the information is not clear, customers are advised to contact the Cisco
Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or their contracted maintenance providers.
Customers Without Service Contracts
Customers who purchase directly from Cisco but do not hold a Cisco service
contract and customers who make purchases through third-party vendors but
are unsuccessful in obtaining fixed software through their point of sale
should obtain upgrades by contacting the Cisco TAC:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/support/tsd_cisco_worldwide_contacts.html
Customers should have the product serial number available and be prepared
to provide the URL of this advisory as evidence of entitlement to a free
upgrade.
Fixed Releases
To determine the affected and fixed releases for each vulnerable product,
refer to the Cisco bug identified for the product. These bugs are listed
in the table in the Vulnerable Products section of this advisory. Cisco
bugs are accessible through the Cisco Bug Search Tool.
Exploitation and Public Announcements
The Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) is not aware
of any public announcements or malicious use of the vulnerability that is
described in this advisory.
