The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 21.04 / 21.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5142-1 advisory.
A flaw was found in the way Samba, as an Active Directory Domain Controller, implemented Kerberos name- based authentication. The Samba AD DC, could become confused about the user a ticket represents if it did not strictly require a Kerberos PAC and always use the SIDs found within. The result could include total domain compromise. (CVE-2020-25719)
A flaw was found in the way samba implemented SMB1 authentication. An attacker could use this flaw to retrieve the plaintext password sent over the wire even if Kerberos authentication was required.
(CVE-2016-2124)
A flaw was found in the way Samba maps domain users to local users. An authenticated attacker could use this flaw to cause possible privilege escalation. (CVE-2020-25717)
A flaw was found in the way samba, as an Active Directory Domain Controller, is able to support an RODC (read-only domain controller). This would allow an RODC to print administrator tickets. (CVE-2020-25718)
Kerberos acceptors need easy access to stable AD identifiers (eg objectSid). Samba as an AD DC now provides a way for Linux applications to obtain a reliable SID (and samAccountName) in issued tickets.
(CVE-2020-25721)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
