TITLE

glibc vulnerable to stack buffer overflow in DNS resolver

DESCRIPTION

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the (1) send_dg and (2) send_vc functions in the libresolv library in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted DNS response that triggers a call to the getaddrinfo function with the AF_UNSPEC or AF_INET6 address family, related to performing "dual A/AAAA DNS queries" and the libnss_dns.so.2 NSS module. GNU glibc is an open source C language compiler released under the LGPL license agreement. It is an implementation of the C library in the Linux operating system. An attacker can use the vulnerability to launch an attack on a Linux host or related devices by constructing a malicious DNS service or using a man-in-the-middle attack, which results in remote code execution and can be obtained. User terminal control. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Note: the current version of the following document is available here: https://h20564.www2.hpe.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/kb/docDisplay?docId=emr_n a-c05212266 SUPPORT COMMUNICATION - SECURITY BULLETIN Document ID: c05212266 Version: 1 HPSBST03603 rev.1 - HPE StoreVirtual Products running LeftHand OS using glibc, Remote Arbitrary Code Execution, Denial of Service (DoS) NOTICE: The information in this Security Bulletin should be acted upon as soon as possible.

Description: The glibc packages provide the standard C libraries (libc), POSIX thread libraries (libpthread), standard math libraries (libm), and the name service cache daemon (nscd) used by multiple programs on the system. Without these libraries, the Linux system cannot function correctly. A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the way the libresolv library performed dual A/AAAA DNS queries. Note: this issue is only exposed when libresolv is called from the nss_dns NSS service module. (CVE-2015-7547) It was discovered that the calloc implementation in glibc could return memory areas which contain non-zero bytes. This could result in unexpected application behavior such as hangs or crashes. (CVE-2015-5229) The CVE-2015-7547 issue was discovered by the Google Security Team and Red Hat. Red Hat would like to thank Jeff Layton for reporting the CVE-2015-5229 issue. This update also fixes the following bugs: * The existing implementation of the "free" function causes all memory pools beyond the first to return freed memory directly to the operating system as quickly as possible. This can result in performance degradation when the rate of free calls is very high. The first memory pool (the main pool) does provide a method to rate limit the returns via M_TRIM_THRESHOLD, but this method is not available to subsequent memory pools. With this update, the M_TRIM_THRESHOLD method is extended to apply to all memory pools, which improves performance for threads with very high amounts of free calls and limits the number of "madvise" system calls. The change also increases the total transient memory usage by processes because the trim threshold must be reached before memory can be freed. To return to the previous behavior, you can either set M_TRIM_THRESHOLD using the "mallopt" function, or set the MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD environment variable to 0. (BZ#1298930) * On the little-endian variant of 64-bit IBM Power Systems (ppc64le), a bug in the dynamic loader could cause applications compiled with profiling enabled to fail to start with the error "monstartup: out of memory". The bug has been corrected and applications compiled for profiling now start correctly. (BZ#1298956) All glibc users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 15.10: libc6 2.21-0ubuntu4.1 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS: libc6 2.19-0ubuntu6.7 Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: libc6 2.15-0ubuntu10.13 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/glibc-2.17-i486-11_slack14.1.txz: Rebuilt. However, due to a patch applied to Slackware's glibc back in 2009 (don't use the gethostbyname4() lookup method as it was causing some cheap routers to misbehave), we were not vulnerable to that issue.

Source: https://www.moxa.com/en/about-us/corporate-responsibility Business recommendation: ------------------------ SEC Consult recommends to immediately apply the available patches from the vendor. A thorough security review should be performed by security professionals to identify further potential security issues. Vulnerability overview/description: ----------------------------------- 1) Authenticated Command Injection (CVE-2021-39279) An authenticated command injection vulnerability can be triggered by issuing a GET request to the "/forms/web_importTFTP" CGI program which is available on the web interface. An attacker can abuse this vulnerability to compromise the operating system of the device. This issue was found by emulating the firmware of the device. 2) Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via Manipulated Config-File (CVE-2021-39278) Via a crafted config-file, a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability can be exploited in the context of the victim's browser. This config-file can be uploaded to the device via the "Config Import Export" tab in the main menu. 3) Known GNU glibc Vulnerabilities (CVE-2015-0235) The used GNU glibc in version 2.9 is outdated and contains multiple known vulnerabilities. One of the discovered vulnerabilities (CVE-2015-0235, gethostbyname "GHOST" buffer overflow) was verified by using the MEDUSA scalable firmware runtime. 4) Multiple Outdated Software Components Multiple outdated software components containing vulnerabilities were found by the IoT Inspector. The vulnerabilities 1), 2) and 3) were manually verified on an emulated device by using the MEDUSA scalable firmware runtime. Proof of concept: ----------------- 1) Authenticated Command Injection (CVE-2021-39279) The vulnerability can be triggered by navigating in the web interface to the tab: "Main Menu"->"Maintenance"->"Config Import Export" The "TFTP Import" menu is prone to command injection via all parameters. To exploit the vulnerability, an IP address, a configuration path and a filename must be set. If the filename is used to trigger the exploit, the payload in the interceptor proxy would be: http://192.168.1.1/forms/web_importTFTP?servIP=192.168.1.1&configPath=/&fileName=name|`ping localhost -c 100` 2) Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via Manipulated Config-File (CVE-2021-39278) The vulnerability can be triggered by navigating in the web interface to the tab: "Main Menu"->"Maintenance"->"Config Import Export" The "Config Import" menu is prone to reflected cross-site scripting via the upload of config files. Example of malicious config file: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [board] deviceName="WAC-2004_0000</span><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>" deviceLocation="" [..] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Uploading such a crafted file triggers cross-site scripting as the erroneous value is displayed without filtering characters. 3) Known GNU glibc Vulnerabilities (CVE-2015-0235) GNU glibc version 2.9 contains multiple CVEs like: CVE-2016-1234, CVE-2015-7547, CVE-2013-7423, CVE-2013-1914, and more. The gethostbyname buffer overflow vulnerability (GHOST) was checked with the help of the exploit code from https://seclists.org/oss-sec/2015/q1/274. It was compiled and executed on the emulated device to test the system. 4) Multiple Outdated Software Components The IoT Inspector recognized multiple outdated software components with known vulnerabilities: BusyBox 1.18.5 06/2011 Dropbear SSH 2011.54 11/2011 GNU glibc 2.9 02/2009 Linux Kernel 2.6.27 10/2008 OpenSSL 0.9.7g 04/2005 Only found in the program "iw_director" OpenSSL 1.0.0 03/2010 Vulnerable / tested versions: ----------------------------- The following firmware versions for various devices have been identified to be vulnerable: * WAC-2004 / 1.7 * WAC-1001 / 2.1 * WAC-1001-T / 2.1 * OnCell G3470A-LTE-EU / 1.7 * OnCell G3470A-LTE-EU-T / 1.7 * TAP-323-EU-CT-T / 1.3 * TAP-323-US-CT-T / 1.3 * TAP-323-JP-CT-T / 1.3 * WDR-3124A-EU / 2.3 * WDR-3124A-EU-T / 2.3 * WDR-3124A-US / 2.3 * WDR-3124A-US-T / 2.3 Vendor contact timeline: ------------------------ 2020-10-09: Contacting vendor through moxa.csrt@moxa.com. 2020-10-12: Contact sends PGP key for encrypted communication and asks for the detailed advisory.
