===================================================================== CERT-Renater Note d'Information No. 2010/VULN290 _____________________________________________________________________ DATE : 11/08/2010 HARDWARE PLATFORM(S) : / OPERATING SYSTEM(S) : Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 running SMB Server. ====================================================================== KB982214 http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS10-054.mspx ______________________________________________________________________ Microsoft Security Bulletin MS10-054 - Critical Vulnerabilities in SMB Server Could Allow Remote Code Execution (982214) Version: 1.0 General Information Executive Summary This security update resolves several privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if an attacker created a specially crafted SMB packet and sent the packet to an affected system. Firewall best practices and standard default firewall configurations can help protect networks from attacks originating outside the enterprise perimeter that would attempt to exploit these vulnerabilities. This security update is rated Critical for all supported editions of Windows XP and Important for all supported editions of Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2. For more information, see the subsection, Affected and Non-Affected Software, in this section. The security update addresses these vulnerabilities by correcting the way that SMB validates SMB requests. For more information about the vulnerabilities, see the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) subsection for the specific vulnerability entry under the next section, Vulnerability Information. Affected Software Windows XP Service Pack 3 Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Service Pack 2 Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition Service Pack 2 Windows Server 2003 with SP2 for Itanium-based Systems Windows Vista Service Pack 1 and Windows Vista Service Pack 2 Windows Vista x64 Edition Service Pack 1 and Windows Vista x64 Edition Service Pack 2 Windows Server 2008 for 32-bit Systems and Windows Server 2008 for 32-bit Systems Service Pack 2* Windows Server 2008 for x64-based Systems and Windows Server 2008 for x64-based Systems Service Pack 2* Windows Server 2008 for Itanium-based Systems and Windows Server 2008 for Itanium-based Systems Service Pack 2 Windows 7 for 32-bit Systems Windows 7 for x64-based Systems Windows Server 2008 R2 for x64-based Systems* Windows Server 2008 R2 for Itanium-based Systems Vulnerability Information SMB Pool Overflow Vulnerability - CVE-2010-2550 An unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that Microsoft Server Message Block (SMB) Protocol software handles specially crafted SMB packets. An attempt to exploit the vulnerability would not require authentication, allowing an attacker to exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted network message to a computer running the Server service. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of the system. SMB Variable Validation Vulnerability - CVE-2010-2551 A denial of service vulnerability exists in the way that Microsoft Server Message Block (SMB) Protocol software handles specially crafted SMB packets. An attempt to exploit the vulnerability would not require authentication, allowing an attacker to exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted network message to a computer running the Server service. SMB Stack Exhaustion Vulnerability - CVE-2010-2552 A denial of service vulnerability exists in the way that Microsoft Server Message Block (SMB) Protocol software handles specially crafted SMB compounded requests. An attempt to exploit the vulnerability would not require authentication, allowing an attacker to exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted network message to a computer running the Server service. ====================================================================== ========================================================= Les serveurs de référence du CERT-Renater http://www.urec.fr/securite http://www.cru.fr/securite http://www.renater.fr ========================================================= + CERT-RENATER | tel : 01-53-94-20-44 + + 151 bd de l'Hopital | fax : 01-53-94-20-41 + + 75013 Paris | email: certsvp@renater.fr + =========================================================
