Detail

A vulnerability has been discovered in samba, a commonly used LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix. A remote attacker may be able to gain access to files which exist outside of the share's defined path. Such files must still be readable by the account used for the connection, though.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 2.2.3a-14.1.

In the unstable (sid) and testing (sarge) distributions this problem was not present.

We recommend that you upgrade your samba packages.

Id Description
10990 HP CIFS Server Arbitrary File Access

The HP CIFS Server contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to read or write files outside of the shared directory path. The issue is due to the program not properly sanitizing user input, specifically traversal style attacks (../../) supplied via the "unix_convert()" and "check_name()" variables when converting DOS path names to filenames which are valid on the server filesystem.
10464 Samba MS-DOS Path Request Arbitrary File Retrieval

Samba contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to gain access to files outside of the share path under the privileges of the user. With a specifically crafted request, an attacker could potentially access files outside the share's root. The issue is due to the unix_convert() and check_name() functions not properly sanitizing user input supplied via the GET, PUT and DIR commands. Samba treats the resulting input as an absolute path rather than relative path to the share.
