CVE-2014-6271

TITLE

GNU Bash shell executes commands in exported functions in environment variables

DESCRIPTION

GNU Bash through 4.3 processes trailing strings after function definitions in the values of environment variables, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted environment, as demonstrated by vectors involving the ForceCommand feature in OpenSSH sshd, the mod_cgi and mod_cgid modules in the Apache HTTP Server, scripts executed by unspecified DHCP clients, and other situations in which setting the environment occurs across a privilege boundary from Bash execution, aka "ShellShock." NOTE: the original fix for this issue was incorrect; CVE-2014-7169 has been assigned to cover the vulnerability that is still present after the incorrect fix. QNAP Systems, Inc. Provided by QTS teeth, Turbo NAS for OS is. QTS for, GNU Bash Vulnerability (JVNVU#97219505) caused by OS Command injection vulnerability (CWE-78) Exists. This vulnerability information is based on the Information Security Early Warning Partnership. IPA Report to JPCERT/CC Coordinated with the developer. Reporter : University of Electro-Communications Wakisaka Yuki MrAny application permission OS The command may be executed. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Critical: bash Shift_JIS security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2014:1295-01 Product: RHEL S-JIS Service Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2014-1295.html Issue date: 2014-09-24 CVE Names: CVE-2014-6271 ===================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated bash Shift_JIS packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Critical security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: SJIS (v. 5.11.z Server) - i386, ia64, x86_64 SJIS for RHEL 6 Server - i386, x86_64 3. Description: The GNU Bourne Again shell (Bash) is a shell and command language interpreter compatible with the Bourne shell (sh). Bash is the default shell for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Shift_JIS, also known as "SJIS", is a character encoding for the Japanese language. This package provides bash support for the Shift_JIS encoding. A flaw was found in the way Bash evaluated certain specially crafted environment variables. An attacker could use this flaw to override or bypass environment restrictions to execute shell commands. Certain services and applications allow remote unauthenticated attackers to provide environment variables, allowing them to exploit this issue. (CVE-2014-6271) For additional information on the CVE-2014-6271 flaw, refer to the Knowledgebase article at https://access.redhat.com/articles/1200223 Red Hat would like to thank Stephane Chazelas for reporting this issue. All users who require Shift_JIS encoding support with Bash built-in functions are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 5.

Release Date: 2014-09-30 Last Updated: 2014-09-30 Potential Security Impact: Remote code execution Source: Hewlett-Packard Company, HP Software Security Response Team VULNERABILITY SUMMARY A potential security vulnerability has been identified with HP Remote Device Access: Virtual Customer Access System (vCAS) running Bash Shell . NOTE: The vCAS product is vulnerable only if DHCP is enabled. References: CVE-2014-6271 CVE-2014-7169 SSRT101724 SUPPORTED SOFTWARE VERSIONS*: ONLY impacted versions are listed. vCAS version 14.06 (RDA 8.1) BACKGROUND CVSS 2.0 Base Metrics =========================================================== Reference Base Vector Base Score CVE-2014-6271 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C) 10.0 CVE-2014-7169 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C) 10.0 =========================================================== Information on CVSS is documented in HP Customer Notice: HPSN-2008-002 RESOLUTION HP is actively working to address this vulnerability for the impacted product versions of HP Remote Device Access: Virtual Customer Access System (vCAS) running Bash Shell. This bulletin will be revised when the software update is released. NOTE: HP recommends to not power-down or disconnect the vCAS until the update is available. MITIGATION INFORMATION A Shellshock attack requires the definition of an environment variable introduced into Bash. The vCAS has three attack vectors: SSH, the lighttpd web server, and the DHCP client. - The exploit does not elevate privileges. The DHCP client uses Bash scripts and is vulnerable to Shellshock. The DHCP exploit can be mitigated by ensuring that DHCP is disabled on the vCAS. Note: HP strongly discourages the use of DHCP on the vCAS. The web UI forces the vCAS user to assign a static IP address and change the hp-admin password. A vCAS user must manually configure DHCP for use on the vCAS. A vCAS user can verify that DHCP is disabled by inspecting the file "/etc/network/interfaces" and ensuring that the "iface" line for device "eth0" is set for a static IP. Example of a static IP configuration: # The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 172.27.1.68 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 172.27.1.1 HISTORY Version:1 (rev.1) - 30 September 2014 Initial release Third Party Security Patches: Third party security patches that are to be installed on systems running HP software products should be applied in accordance with the customer's patch management policy.
