Summary

A vulnerability was discovered in SPICE before 0.13.90 in the server's protocol handling. An authenticated attacker could send crafted messages to the SPICE server causing a heap overflow leading to a crash or possible code execution.

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.
  • Overflow Buffers
    Buffer Overflow attacks target improper or missing bounds checking on buffer operations, typically triggered by input injected by an attacker. As a consequence, an attacker is able to write past the boundaries of allocated buffer regions in memory, causing a program crash or potentially redirection of execution as per the attackers' choice.
  • Client-side Injection-induced Buffer Overflow
    This type of attack exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in targeted client software through injection of malicious content from a custom-built hostile service.
  • Filter Failure through Buffer Overflow
    In this attack, the idea is to cause an active filter to fail by causing an oversized transaction. An attacker may try to feed overly long input strings to the program in an attempt to overwhelm the filter (by causing a buffer overflow) and hoping that the filter does not fail securely (i.e. the user input is let into the system unfiltered).
  • MIME Conversion
    An attacker exploits a weakness in the MIME conversion routine to cause a buffer overflow and gain control over the mail server machine. The MIME system is designed to allow various different information formats to be interpreted and sent via e-mail. Attack points exist when data are converted to MIME compatible format and back.

    Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security
    impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
    score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each
    vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
    
    The redhat-virtualization-host packages provide the Red Hat
    Virtualization Host. These packages include
    redhat-release-virtualization-host, ovirt-node, and rhev-hypervisor.
    Red Hat Virtualization Hosts (RHVH) are installed using a special
    build of Red Hat Enterprise Linux with only the packages required to
    host virtual machines. RHVH features a Cockpit user interface for
    monitoring the host's resources and performing administrative tasks.
    
    The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
    redhat-release-virtualization-host (4.0), imgbased (0.8.16),
    redhat-virtualization-host (4.0). (BZ#1410848, BZ#1430244)
    
    Security Fix(es) :
    
    * A vulnerability was discovered in SPICE in the server's protocol
    handling. An authenticated attacker could send crafted messages to the
    SPICE server causing a heap overflow leading to a crash or possible
    code execution. (CVE-2016-9577)
    
    * A vulnerability was discovered in SPICE in the server's protocol
    handling. An attacker able to connect to the SPICE server could send
    crafted messages which would cause the process to crash.
    (CVE-2016-9578)
    
    These issues were discovered by Frediano Ziglio (Red Hat).
    
    Bug Fix(es) :
    
    * Previously, imgbased blindly copied /etc from old layers into new
    layers in order to keep configuration changes between upgrades. This
    meant that imgbased's behavior differed from RPM, in that unmodified
    configuration files would be preserved across imgbased upgrades
    whereas 'yum upgrade' of the same packages would have replaced them.
    Now, imgbased compares the sums of files to the originals kept
    per-layer in /usr/share/factory/etc so that unmodified configuration
    files are now handled appropriately. (BZ#1418179)
    
    * Previously, some earlier versions of Red Hat Virtualization Host
    (RHVH) repeatedly prompted for upgrades, even when the most recent
    version was already installed. This was caused by the RHVH image
    containing a placeholder package that was made obsolete in order to
    upgrade. However, the package that was used to upgrade was not
    propagated to the rpmdb on the new image. Now, upgrading includes the
    update package in the rpmdb on the new image. (BZ#1422476)
    
    * With this update, Red Hat Virtualization Host (RHVH) now includes
    the 'screen' package. Previously, ovirt-hosted-engine-setup invoked
    from a CLI warned users that the 'screen' package was not installed.
    Though this was not an explicit requirement when using cockpit,
    including it provides a better experience if using the CLI.

    descriptionSeveral vulnerabilities were discovered in spice, a SPICE protocol client and server library. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems : - CVE-2016-9577 Frediano Ziglio of Red Hat discovered a buffer overflow vulnerability in the main_channel_alloc_msg_rcv_buf function. An authenticated attacker can take advantage of this flaw to cause a denial of service (spice server crash), or possibly, execute arbitrary code. - CVE-2016-9578 Frediano Ziglio of Red Hat discovered that spice does not properly validate incoming messages. An attacker able to connect to the spice server could send crafted messages which would cause the process to crash.
