Summary

The SUSE coreutils-i18n.patch for GNU coreutils allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and crash) via a long string to the sort command, when using the (1) -d or (2) -M switch, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow in the alloca function.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables
    This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
  • Server Side Include (SSI) Injection
    An attacker can use Server Side Include (SSI) Injection to send code to a web application that then gets executed by the web server. Doing so enables the attacker to achieve similar results to Cross Site Scripting, viz., arbitrary code execution and information disclosure, albeit on a more limited scale, since the SSI directives are nowhere near as powerful as a full-fledged scripting language. Nonetheless, the attacker can conveniently gain access to sensitive files, such as password files, and execute shell commands.
  • Cross Zone Scripting
    An attacker is able to cause a victim to load content into their web-browser that bypasses security zone controls and gain access to increased privileges to execute scripting code or other web objects such as unsigned ActiveX controls or applets. This is a privilege elevation attack targeted at zone-based web-browser security. In a zone-based model, pages belong to one of a set of zones corresponding to the level of privilege assigned to that page. Pages in an untrusted zone would have a lesser level of access to the system and/or be restricted in the types of executable content it was allowed to invoke. In a cross-zone scripting attack, a page that should be assigned to a less privileged zone is granted the privileges of a more trusted zone. This can be accomplished by exploiting bugs in the browser, exploiting incorrect configuration in the zone controls, through a cross-site scripting attack that causes the attackers' content to be treated as coming from a more trusted page, or by leveraging some piece of system functionality that is accessible from both the trusted and less trusted zone. This attack differs from "Restful Privilege Escalation" in that the latter correlates to the inadequate securing of RESTful access methods (such as HTTP DELETE) on the server, while cross-zone scripting attacks the concept of security zones as implemented by a browser.
  • Cross Site Scripting through Log Files
    An attacker may leverage a system weakness where logs are susceptible to log injection to insert scripts into the system's logs. If these logs are later viewed by an administrator through a thin administrative interface and the log data is not properly HTML encoded before being written to the page, the attackers' scripts stored in the log will be executed in the administrative interface with potentially serious consequences. This attack pattern is really a combination of two other attack patterns: log injection and stored cross site scripting.
  • Command Line Execution through SQL Injection
    An attacker uses standard SQL injection methods to inject data into the command line for execution. This could be done directly through misuse of directives such as MSSQL_xp_cmdshell or indirectly through injection of data into the database that would be interpreted as shell commands. Sometime later, an unscrupulous backend application (or could be part of the functionality of the same application) fetches the injected data stored in the database and uses this data as command line arguments without performing proper validation. The malicious data escapes that data plane by spawning new commands to be executed on the host.

    "An updated rhev-hypervisor6 package that fixes multiple security
    issues and one bug is now available.
    
    The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having
    important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)
    base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for
    each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.
    
    The rhev-hypervisor6 package provides a Red Hat Enterprise
    Virtualization Hypervisor ISO disk image. The Red Hat Enterprise
    Virtualization Hypervisor is a dedicated Kernel-based Virtual Machine
    (KVM) hypervisor. It includes everything necessary to run and manage
    virtual machines: a subset of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating
    environment and the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Agent.
    
    Note: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor is only available
    for the Intel 64 and AMD64 architectures with virtualization
    extensions.
    
    Upgrade Note: If you upgrade the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization
    Hypervisor through the 3.2 Manager administration portal, the Host may
    appear with the status of 'Install Failed'. If this happens, place the
    host into maintenance mode, then activate it again to get the host
    back to an 'Up' state.
    
    A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way QEMU processed the SCSI
    'REPORT LUNS' command when more than 256 LUNs were specified for a
    single SCSI target. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to
    corrupt QEMU process memory on the host, which could potentially
    result in arbitrary code execution on the host with the privileges of
    the QEMU process. (CVE-2013-4344)
    
    Multiple flaws were found in the way Linux kernel handled HID (Human
    Interface Device) reports. An attacker with physical access to the
    system could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially,
    escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2013-2888,
    CVE-2013-2889, CVE-2013-2892)
    
    A flaw was found in the way the Python SSL module handled X.509
    certificate fields that contain a NULL byte. An attacker could
    potentially exploit this flaw to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks to
    spoof SSL servers. Note that to exploit this issue, an attacker would
    need to obtain a carefully crafted certificate signed by an authority
    that the client trusts. (CVE-2013-4238)
    
    The default OpenSSH configuration made it easy for remote attackers to
    exhaust unauthorized connection slots and prevent other users from
    being able to log in to a system. This flaw has been addressed by
    enabling random early connection drops by setting MaxStartups to
    10:30:100 by default. For more information, refer to the
    sshd_config(5) man page. (CVE-2010-5107)
    
    The CVE-2013-4344 issue was discovered by Asias He of Red Hat.
    
    This updated package provides updated components that include fixes
    for various security issues. These issues have no security impact on
    Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor itself, however. The
    security fixes included in this update address the following CVE
    numbers :
    
    CVE-2012-0786 and CVE-2012-0787 (augeas issues)
    
    CVE-2013-1813 (busybox issue)
    
    CVE-2013-0221, CVE-2013-0222, and CVE-2013-0223 (coreutils issues)
    
    CVE-2012-4453 (dracut issue)
    
    CVE-2013-4332, CVE-2013-0242, and CVE-2013-1914 (glibc issues)
    
    CVE-2013-4387, CVE-2013-0343, CVE-2013-4345, CVE-2013-4591,
    CVE-2013-4592, CVE-2012-6542, CVE-2013-3231, CVE-2013-1929,
    CVE-2012-6545, CVE-2013-1928, CVE-2013-2164, CVE-2013-2234, and
    CVE-2013-2851 (kernel issues)
    
    CVE-2013-4242 (libgcrypt issue)
    
    CVE-2013-4419 (libguestfs issue)
    
    CVE-2013-1775, CVE-2013-2776, and CVE-2013-2777 (sudo issues)
    
    This update also fixes the following bug :
    
    * A previous version of the rhev-hypervisor6 package did not contain
    the latest vhostmd package, which provides a 'metrics communication
    channel' between a host and its hosted virtual machines, allowing
    limited introspection of host resource usage from within virtual
    machines. This has been fixed, and rhev-hypervisor6 now includes the
    latest vhostmd package. (BZ#1026703)
    
    This update also contains the fixes from the following errata :
    
    * ovirt-node: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2013-1528.html
    
    Users of the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor are advised
    to upgrade to this updated package, which corrects these issues."

    descriptionUpdated coreutils packages that fix three security issues, several bugs, and add two enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having low security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. The coreutils package contains the core GNU utilities. It is a combination of the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages. It was discovered that the sort, uniq, and join utilities did not properly restrict the use of the alloca() function. An attacker could use this flaw to crash those utilities by providing long input strings. (CVE-2013-0221, CVE-2013-0222, CVE-2013-0223) These updated coreutils packages include numerous bug fixes and two enhancements. Space precludes documenting all of these changes in this advisory. Users are directed to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 Technical Notes, linked to in the References, for information on the most significant of these changes. All coreutils users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues and add these enhancements.

  • NASL familyCentOS Local Security Checks
    NASL idCENTOS_RHSA-2013-1652.NASL
    descriptionUpdated coreutils packages that fix three security issues, several bugs, and add two enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having low security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. The coreutils package contains the core GNU utilities. It is a combination of the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages. It was discovered that the sort, uniq, and join utilities did not properly restrict the use of the alloca() function. An attacker could use this flaw to crash those utilities by providing long input strings. (CVE-2013-0221, CVE-2013-0222, CVE-2013-0223) These updated coreutils packages include numerous bug fixes and two enhancements. Space precludes documenting all of these changes in this advisory. Users are directed to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 Technical Notes, linked to in the References, for information on the most significant of these changes. All coreutils users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues and add these enhancements.
