-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT PACKAGE : snort SUMMARY : Vulnerability in the stream4 preprocessor DATE : 2003-05-06 21:44:00 ID : CLA-2003:642 RELEVANT RELEASES : 8, 9 DESCRIPTION Snort is an Open Source Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS). Core Security has discovered[1] a remotely exploitable integer overflow vulnerability in Snort. It resides in the stream4 preprocessor, which is responsible for normalizing TCP traffic before its analysis by the rules processor. A remote attacker able to insert specially crafted TCP traffic in the network being monitored by snort may crash the sensor or execute arbitrary code in its context, which is run by the root user. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned the name CAN-2003-0209 to this issue[2]. Since the stream4 preprocessor is present only in snort versions >= 1.8, users of Conectiva Linux versions 6.0 and 7.0 are not vulnerable to this attack. Additionally, a preventive fix for a possible problem with the use of the memcpy() function in the frag2 preprocessor code was added[3]. IMPORTANT: Please note that this update includes snort 1.9.1. The snort version originally distributed with Conectiva Linux 8 was 1.8.4b1 (already updated to 1.9.1 in the last snort security[4] announcement). Since several components have changed in snort 1.9.1, the old snort.conf file and the alerts database need some small changes in order to work with this new version. Instructions about how to smoothly upgrade from 1.8.4b1 are available in the package documentation and in our last snort security announcement[4], released on 04/04/2003. SOLUTION All snort users should upgrade.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Debian Security Advisory DSA 297-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze May 1st, 2003 http://www.debian.org/security/faq Package : snort Vulnerability : integer overflow, buffer overflow Problem-Type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE Ids : CAN-2003-0033 CAN-2003-0209 CERT advisories: VU#139129 VU#916785 Bugtraq Ids : 7178 6963 Two vulnerabilities have been discoverd in Snort, a popular network intrusion detection system. Snort comes with modules and plugins that perform a variety of functions such as protocol analysis. The following issues have been identified: Heap overflow in Snort "stream4" preprocessor (VU#139129, CAN-2003-0209, Bugtraq Id 7178) Researchers at CORE Security Technologies have discovered a remotely exploitable inteter overflow that results in overwriting the heap in the "stream4" preprocessor module. This module allows Snort to reassemble TCP packet fragments for further analysis. An attacker could insert arbitrary code that would be executed as the user running Snort, probably root. Buffer overflow in Snort RPC preprocessor (VU#916785, CAN-2003-0033, Bugtraq Id 6963) Researchers at Internet Security Systems X-Force have discovered a remotely exploitable buffer overflow in the Snort RPC preprocessor module. Snort incorrectly checks the lengths of what is being normalized against the current packet size. An attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code under the privileges of the Snort process, probably root. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 1.8.4beta1-3.1. The old stable distribution (potato) is not affected by these problems since it doesn't contain the problematic code. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 2.0.0-1. We recommend that you upgrade your snort package immediately. You are also advised to upgrade to the most recent version of Snort, since Snort, as any intrusion detection system, is rather useless if it is based on old and out-dated data and not kept up to date. Such installations would be unable to detect intrusions using modern methods. The current version of Snort is 2.0.0, while the version in the stable distribution (1.8) is quite old and the one in the old stable distribution is beyond hope. Since Debian does not update arbitrary packages in stable releases, even Snort is not going to see updates other than to fix security problems, you are advised to upgrade to the most recent version from third party sources. The Debian maintainer for Snort provides backported up-to-date packages for woody (stable) and potato (oldstable) for cases where you cannot upgrade your entire system. These packages are untested, though and only exist for the i386 architecture: deb http://people.debian.org/~ssmeenk/snort-stable-i386/ ./ deb-src http://people.debian.org/~ssmeenk/snort-stable-i386/ ./ deb http://people.debian.org/~ssmeenk/snort-oldstable-i386/ ./ deb-src http://people.debian.org/~ssmeenk/snort-oldstable-i386/ ./ Upgrade Instructions wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for sources.list as given below: apt-get update will update the internal database apt-get upgrade will install corrected packages You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to the proper configuration.

The Snort stream4 preprocessor (spp_stream4) incorrectly calculates segment size parameters during stream reassembly for certain sequence number ranges which can lead to an integer overflow that can be expanded to a heap overflow. The Snort stream4 flaw may lead to a denial of service (DoS) attack or remote command execution on a host running Snort. This attack can be launched by crafting TCP stream packets and transmitting them over a network segment that is being monitored by a vulnerable Snort implementation. In its default configuration, certain versions of snort are vulnerable to this attack, as is the default configuration of the Snort IDS." "Remote attackers may exploit the buffer overflow condition to run arbitrary code on a Snort sensor with the privileges of the Snort IDS process, which typically runs as the superuser. The vulnerable preprocessor is enabled by default. It is not necessary to establish an actual connection to a RPC portmapper service to exploit this vulnerability."

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory Package name: snort Advisory ID: MDKSA-2003:052 Date: April 28th, 2003 Affected versions: 8.2, 9.0, 9.1, Corporate Server 2.1, Multi Network Firewall 8.2 Problem Description: An integer overflow was discovered in the Snort stream4 preprocessor by the Sourcefire Vulnerability Research Team. This preprocessor (spp_stream4) incorrectly calculates segment size parameters during stream reassembly for certainm sequence number ranges. This can lead to an integer overflow that can in turn lead to a heap overflow that can be exploited to perform a denial of service (DoS) or even remote command excution on the host running Snort. Disabling the stream4 preprocessor will make Snort invulnerable to this attack, and the flaw has been fixed upstream in Snort version 2.0. Snort versions 1.8 through 1.9.1 are vulnerable.

Vendor Statement

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Snort(TM) Advisory: Integer Overflow in Stream4 Date: April 16, 2003 Affected Versions: All versions of the following products are affected: * Snort 1.8 through 1.9.1 * Snort CVS - current branch up to version 2.0.0 beta Synopsis: The Sourcefire Vulnerability Research Team has learned of an integer overflow in the Snort stream4 preprocessor used by the Sourcefire Network Sensor product line. The Snort stream4 preprocessor (spp_stream4) incorrectly calculates segment size parameters during stream reassembly for certain sequence number ranges which can lead to an integer overflow that can be expanded to a heap overflow. The Snort stream4 flaw may lead to a denial of service (DoS) attack or remote command execution on a host running Snort. This attack can be launched by crafting TCP stream packets and transmitting them over a network segment that is being monitored by a vulnerable Snort implementation. In its default configuration, certain versions of snort are vulnerable to this attack, as is the default configuration of the Snort IDS. Disabling the stream4 preprocessor will make the snort invulnerable to the attack. To disable the stream4 preprocessor, edit snort.conf and replace any lines that begin with "preprocessor stream4" with "# preprocessor stream4" NOTE: Disabling the stream4 preprocessor disables stateful inspection and stream reassembly and could allow someone to evade snort using tcp stream segmentation attacks. Patches: Snort 2.0 has been released and corrects this vulnerability. (C) 2003 Sourcefire, Inc. All rights reserved.
