"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06, has samba packages installed that are affected by multiple
vulnerabilities:
- The Samba vfs_fruit module uses extended file attributes (EA, xattr) to provide ...enhanced compatibility
with Apple SMB clients and interoperability with a Netatalk 3 AFP fileserver. Samba versions prior to
4.13.17, 4.14.12 and 4.15.5 with vfs_fruit configured allow out-of-bounds heap read and write via
specially crafted extended file attributes. A remote attacker with write access to extended file
attributes can execute arbitrary code with the privileges of smbd, typically root. (CVE-2021-44142)
- Logic error in the SID/Name translation functionality in smbd in Samba 3.0.23d through 3.0.25pre2 allows
local users to gain temporary privileges and execute SMB/CIFS protocol operations via unspecified vectors
that cause the daemon to transition to the root user. (CVE-2007-2444)
- Samba 3.2.0 uses weak permissions (0666) for the (1) group_mapping.tdb and (2) group_mapping.ldb files,
which allows local users to modify the membership of Unix groups. (CVE-2008-3789)
- smbd in Samba 3.0.29 through 3.2.4 might allow remote attackers to read arbitrary memory and cause a
denial of service via crafted (1) trans, (2) trans2, and (3) nttrans requests, related to a cut&paste
error that causes an improper bounds check to be performed. (CVE-2008-4314)
- smbd in Samba 3.3.11, 3.4.6, and 3.5.0, when libcap support is enabled, runs with the CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE
capability, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended file permissions via standard
filesystem operations with any client. (CVE-2010-0728)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
