Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.150735
Category:Denial of Service
Title:Samba 4.0.0 <= 4.0.17 Improper Input Validation Vulnerability (CVE-2014-0239)
Summary:Potential DOS in Samba internal DNS server.
Description:Summary:
Potential DOS in Samba internal DNS server.

Vulnerability Insight:
Samba versions 4.0.0 and above have a flaw in DNS protocol handling in the
internal DNS server. The server will not check the 'reply' flag in the DNS
packet header when processing a request. That makes it vulnerable to reply
to a spoofed reply packet with another reply. Two affected servers could thus
DOS each other.

Affected Software/OS:
Samba versions 4.0.0 through 4.0.17.

Solution:
Update to version 4.0.18 or later.

CVSS Score:
5.0

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
