SonicWall Secure Mobile Access Multiple Vulnerabilities (SNWLID-2021-0026)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 155961

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its self-reported version, the remote SonicWall Secure Mobile Access is affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including:

- An unauthenticated stack-based buffer overflow due to the SonicWall SMA SSLVPN Apache httpd server GET method of mod_cgi module environment variables use a single stack-based buffer using `strcat`. This can allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-20038)

- Multiple unauthenticated file explorer heap-based and stack-based buffer overflows due the sonicfiles RAC_COPY_TO (RacNumber 36) method which allows users to upload files to an SMB share and can be called without any authentication. This can allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code as the nobody user.
(CVE-2021-20045)

- A heap-based buffer overflow due to the RAC_GET_BOOKMARKS_HTML5 (RacNumber 35) method that allows users to list their bookmarks. This method is vulnerable to heap-based buffer-overflow, due to unchecked use of strcat. This can allow a remote, authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code as the nobody user. (CVE-2021-20043)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to version 10.2.0.9-41sv or 10.2.1.3-27sv or later.
