CVE-2019-14907

All samba versions 4.9.x before 4.9.18, 4.10.x before 4.10.12 and 4.11.x before 4.11.5 have an issue where if it is set with "log level = 3" (or above) then the string obtained from the client, after a failed character conversion, is printed. Such strings can be provided during the NTLMSSP authentication exchange. In the Samba AD DC in particular, this may cause a long-lived process(such as the RPC server) to terminate. (In the file server case, the most likely target, smbd, operates as process-per-client and so a crash there is harmless).

(In the file server case, the most likely target, smbd, operates as process-per-client and so a crash there is harmless).

The implementation of ACL inheritance in the Samba AD DC was not complete, and so absent a 'full-sync' replication, ACLs could get out of sync between domain controllers (CVE-2019-14902).

When processing untrusted string input Samba can read past the end of the allocated buffer when printing a "Conversion error" message to the logs. This can cause a crash after the failed character conversion when operating at log level 3 or above (CVE-2019-14907).

During DNS zone scavenging (of expired dynamic entries) in a Samba AD DC, there is a read of memory after it has been freed (CVE-2019-19344).

Note that manual intervention is required to fully implement the fix for CVE-2019-14902. See the upstream advisory for details.

It was discovered that Samba did not automatically replicate ACLs set to inherit down a subtree on AD Directory, contrary to expectations. This issue was only addressed in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 19.04 and Ubuntu 19.10. (CVE-2019-14902)

Robert Święcki discovered that Samba incorrectly handled certain character conversions when the log level is set to 3 or above. In certain environments, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Samba to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2019-14907)

Christian Naumer discovered that Samba incorrectly handled DNS zone scavenging. This issue could possibly result in some incorrect data being written to the DB. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 19.04 and Ubuntu 19.10. (CVE-2019-19344)
