Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.150714
Category:Buffer overflow
Title:Samba 2.2.2 <= 2.2.6 Vulnerability (CVE-2003-0085)
Summary:Samba is prone to a buffer overflow vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
Samba is prone to a buffer overflow vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
There was a bug in the length checking for encrypted password change
requests from clients. A client could potentially send an encrypted
password, which, when decrypted with the old hashed password could be
used as a buffer overrun attack on the stack of smbd. The attach would
have to be crafted such that converting a DOS codepage string to little
endian UCS2 unicode would translate into an executable block of code.

All versions of Samba between 2.2.2 to 2.2.6 inclusive are vulnerable
to this problem. This version of Samba 2.2.7 contains a fix for this
problem.

Earlier versions of Samba are not vulnerable.

There is no known exploit or exploit code for this vulnerability,
it was discovered by a code audit by Debian Samba maintainers.

Affected Software/OS:
Samba versions 2.2.2 through 2.2.6.

Solution:
Update to version 2.2.7a or later.

CVSS Score:
10.0
