MiracleLinux 4 : sssd-1.9.2-82.4.AXS4 (AXSA:2013-386:01)

high Nessus Plugin ID 289831

Synopsis

The remote MiracleLinux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2013-386:01 advisory.

Provides a set of daemons to manage access to remote directories and authentication mechanisms. It provides an NSS and PAM interface toward the system and a pluggable backend system to connect to multiple different account sources. It is also the basis to provide client auditing and policy services for projects like FreeIPA.
Security issues fixed with this release:
CVE-2013-0219 System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) before 1.9.4, when (1) creating, (2) copying, or (3) removing a user home directory tree, allows local users to create, modify, or delete arbitrary files via a symlink attack on another user's files.
CVE-2013-0220 The (1) sss_autofs_cmd_getautomntent and (2) sss_autofs_cmd_getautomntbyname function in responder/autofs/autofssrv_cmd.c and the (3) ssh_cmd_parse_request function in responder/ssh/sshsrv_cmd.c in System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) before 1.9.4 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read, crash, and restart) via a crafted SSSD packet.
CVE-2013-0287 The Simple Access Provider in System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) 1.9.0 through 1.9.4, when the Active Directory provider is used, does not properly enforce the simple_deny_groups option, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions.
Fixed bugs:
Fixed search delay when a member whose Distinguished Name (DN) pointed out of any of the configured search bases.
Fixed the pwd_expiration_warning for Kerberos which was incorrectly set to 0.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

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

Solution
