Vulnerability Insight:
Netatalk before 3.2.1 has an off-by-one error and resultant heap-based
buffer overflow because of setting ibuf[PASSWDLEN] to '\0' in FPLoginExt
in login in etc/uams/uams_pam.c. (CVE-2024-38439)
Netatalk before 3.2.1 has an off-by-one error, and resultant heap-based
buffer overflow and segmentation violation, because of incorrectly using
FPLoginExt in BN_bin2bn in etc/uams/uams_dhx_pam.c. The original issue
1097 report stated: 'The latest version of Netatalk (v3.2.0) contains a
security vulnerability. This vulnerability arises due to a lack of
validation for the length field after parsing user-provided data,
leading to an out-of-bounds heap write of one byte (\0). Under specific
configurations, this can result in reading metadata of the next heap
block, potentially causing a Denial of Service (DoS) under certain heap
layouts or with ASAN enabled. ... The vulnerability is located in the
FPLoginExt operation of Netatalk, in the BN_bin2bn function found in
/etc/uams/uams_dhx_pam.c ... if (!(bn = BN_bin2bn((unsigned char *)ibuf,
KEYSIZE, NULL))) ... threads ... [#0] Id 1, Name: 'afpd', stopped
0x7ffff4304e58 in ?? (), reason: SIGSEGV ... [#0] 0x7ffff4304e58 mov
BYTE PTR [r14+0x8], 0x0 ... mov rdx, QWORD PTR [rsp+0x18] ...
afp_login_ext(obj=, ibuf=0x62d000010424 '',
ibuflen=0xffffffffffff0015, rbuf=, rbuflen=out>) ... afp_over_dsi(obj=0x5555556154c0 ).'. (CVE-2024-38440)
Netatalk before 3.2.1 has an off-by-one error and resultant heap-based
