TITLE

plural Apple Run on product ICMPv6 Service disruption in implementation (DoS) Vulnerabilities

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2010-002659

DESCRIPTION

The ICMPv6 implementation on the Apple Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme Base Station, and AirPort Express Base Station with firmware before 7.5.2 does not limit the rate of (1) Router Advertisement and (2) Neighbor Discovery packets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption and device restart) by sending many packets. Apple Time Capsule is a solution that allows Macs and PCs to back up data over a wireless network. AirPort Base Station is a wireless base station. When the base station processes the Router Advertisement (RA) and the Neighbor Discovery (ND) message, there is a resource exhaustion error. The system on the local network sends a large number of RA and ND messages, which may cause all resources of the base station to be consumed and automatically started. An attacker can exploit this issue to cause an affected device to restart, triggering a denial-of-service condition for legitimate users. NOTE: This issue was previously discussed in BID 45466 (Apple Time Capsule and AirPort Base Station Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities) but has been given its own record to better document it. Time Capsule is a backup tool developed by Apple, specially designed for Time Machine of Mac system. By sending a maliciously crafted SNMPv3 packet, an attacker may cause the SNMP server to terminate, denying service to legitimate clients. By default, the 'WAN SNMP' configuration option is disabled, and the SNMP service is accessible only to other devices on the local network. This issue is addressed by applying the Net-SNMP patches. This issue is addressed by rate limiting incoming ICMPv6 packets. Credit to Shoichi Sakane of the KAME project, Kanai Akira of Internet Multifeed Co., Shirahata Shin and Rodney Van Meter of Keio University, and Tatuya Jinmei of Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. for reporting this issue. An attacker with write access to an FTP server inside the NAT may issue a malicious PORT command, causing the ALG to send attacker-supplied data to an IP and port behind the NAT. As the data is resent from the Base Station, it could potentially bypass any IP-based restrictions for the service. This issue is addressed by not rewriting inbound PORT commands via the ALG. Credit to Sabahattin Gucukoglu for reporting this issue. This issue is addressed through improved validation of fragmented ISAKMP packets. Sending a maliciously crafted DHCP reply to the device may cause it to stop responding to network traffic. This issue affects devices that have been configured to act as a bridge, or are configured in Network Address Translation (NAT) mode with a default host enabled. By default, the device operates in NAT mode, and no default host is configured. This update addresses the issue through improved handling of DHCP packets on the network bridge. Credit to Stefan R. Filipek for reporting this issue. It is recommended that AirPort Utility 5.5.2 be installed before upgrading to Firmware version 7.5.2.
