Summary

The package nextcloud before version 21.0.3-1 is vulnerable to multiple
issues including authentication bypass, privilege escalation, access
restriction bypass, content spoofing, cross-site scripting, incorrect
calculation, information disclosure and insufficient validation.

Resolution

Upgrade to 21.0.3-1.

pacman -Syu “nextcloud>=21.0.3-1”

The problems have been fixed upstream in version 21.0.3.

Workaround

None.

Description

• CVE-2021-32678 (insufficient validation)

In Nextcloud Server versions prior to 21.0.3, ratelimits are not
applied to OCS API responses. This affects any OCS API controller
(OCSController) using the @BruteForceProtection annotation. Risk
depends on the installed applications on the Nextcloud Server, but
could range from bypassing authentication ratelimits or spamming other
Nextcloud users.

• CVE-2021-32679 (content spoofing)

In Nextcloud Server versions prior to 21.0.3, filenames where not
escaped by default in controllers using DownloadResponse. When a
user-supplied filename was passed unsanitized into a
DownloadResponse, this could be used to trick users into downloading
malicious files with a benign file extension. This would show in UI
behaviours where Nextcloud applications would display a benign file
extension (e.g. JPEG), but the file will actually be downloaded with an
executable file extension. Administrators of Nextcloud instances do not
have a workaround available, but developers of Nextcloud apps may
manually escape the file name before passing it into
DownloadResponse.

• CVE-2021-32680 (incorrect calculation)

In Nextcloud Server versions prior to 21.0.3, Nextcloud Server audit
logging functionality wasn’t properly logging events for the unsetting
of a share expiration date. This event is supposed to be logged.

• CVE-2021-32688 (privilege escalation)

Nextcloud Server supports application specific tokens for
authentication purposes. These tokens are supposed to be granted to a
specific applications (e.g. DAV sync clients), and can also be
configured by the user to not have any filesystem access. Due to a
lacking permission check, the tokens were able to change their own
permissions in versions prior to 21.0.3. Thus fileystem limited tokens
were able to grant themselves access to the filesystem.

• CVE-2021-32703 (information disclosure)

In Nextcloud Server versions prior to 21.0.3, there was a lack of
ratelimiting on the shareinfo endpoint. This may have allowed an
attacker to enumerate potentially valid share tokens.

• CVE-2021-32705 (information disclosure)

In Nextcloud Server versions prior to 21.0.3, there was a lack of
ratelimiting on the public DAV endpoint. This may have allowed an
attacker to enumerate potentially valid share tokens or credentials.

• CVE-2021-32725 (access restriction bypass)

In Nextcloud Server versions prior to 21.0.3, default share permissions
were not being respected for federated reshares of files and folders.

• CVE-2021-32726 (authentication bypass)

In Nextcloud Server versions prior to 21.0.3, webauthn tokens were not
deleted after a user has been deleted. If a victim reused an earlier
used username, the previous user could gain access to their account.

• CVE-2021-32733 (cross-site scripting)

A cross-site scripting vulnerability is present in Nextcloud Text in
versions prior to 21.0.3. The Nextcloud Text application shipped with
Nextcloud Server used a text/html Content-Type when serving files to
users. Due the strict Content-Security-Policy shipped with Nextcloud,
this issue is not exploitable on modern browsers supporting Content-
Security-Policy.

• CVE-2021-32734 (information disclosure)

In Nextcloud Server versions prior to 21.0.3, the Nextcloud Text
application shipped with Nextcloud Server returned verbatim exception
messages to the user. This could result in a full path disclosure on
shared files. As a workaround, one may disable the Nextcloud Text
application in Nextcloud Server app settings.

• CVE-2021-32741 (information disclosure)

In Nextcloud Server versions prior to 21.0.3, there was a lack of
ratelimiting on the public share link mount endpoint. This may have
allowed an attacker to enumerate potentially valid share tokens.

Impact

A remote attacker could bypass authentication, escalate privileges,
disclose sensitive information or spoof content.
