Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2020-04-23 16:39:58 UTC
1) CVE-2020-11939

Description:
"In nDPI through 3.2 Stable, the SSH protocol dissector has multiple KEXINIT integer overflows that result in a controlled remote heap overflow in concat_hash_string in ssh.c. Due to the granular nature of the overflow primitive and the ability to control both the contents and layout of the nDPI library's heap memory through remote input, this vulnerability may be abused to achieve full Remote Code Execution against any network inspection stack that is linked against nDPI and uses it to perform network traffic analysis."

Patch: https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/commit/7ce478a58b4dd29a8d1e6f4e9df2f778613d9202
Advisory: https://securitylab.github.com/advisories/GHSL-2020-051_052-ntop-ndpi

2) CVE-2020-11940
	
Description:
"In nDPI through 3.2 Stable, an out-of-bounds read in concat_hash_string in ssh.c can be exploited by a network-positioned attacker that can send malformed SSH protocol messages on a network segment monitored by nDPI's library."

Patch: https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/commit/3bbb0cd3296023f6f922c71d21a1c374d2b0a435

Comment 3 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2020-05-05 22:40:55 UTC
I've asked for an update on the dependent bugs. It looks like some patches could be applied but there may be complications with the rdeps given they seem fragile.

# maintainer ignored w/irrelevant comment.

What irrelevant comment would that be? Is that really something you want to relay to a wider audience instead of inviting people to (supply patches to) fix software that is actually useful and used?

Regarding the bit before the "w/", I want to say that I do not have much time for complex problems these days for various personal reasons, and fixing various upstream compatibility issues makes resolving nDPI-3.2 stabilisation rather complex, indeed.

You also didn't announce the removal as a "last rites", it seems.

So, just reply on the bug and request assistance. Others have linked to upstream patches and you simply replied with an issue regarding API's. That doesn't really explain anything to anyone. Not having time for a volunteer project is understandable.

These are the only patches applied: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=86334337401778e20e86773179e40c4a323fb34d

We need this: https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/commit/7ce478a58b4dd29a8d1e6f4e9df2f778613d9202.

If there's a problem or something I'm not seeing, please let us know and we can help. Otherwise please apply the patches ASAP.

I think we need this, actually:
1) https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/commit/3bbb0cd3296023f6f922c71d21a1c374d2b0a435
2) https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/commit/7ce478a58b4dd29a8d1e6f4e9df2f778613d9202
3) https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/commit/a70fd6ed3b33d9e2c89fe35c96102c156d39f1f9
4) https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/commit/c120cca66272646c4277d71fa769d020b1026b28

but there's a large number of other memory-safety commits, so a snapshot may be more appropriate if the reverse dependencies still build.

Where you looking at the dev branch or the 3.2-stable branch?

Yes, it is starting to look like that, indeed.

Yes, upstream development has great trouble declaring stable APIs and doing their work in their stead cost me many hours. When you see mention of "issues with APIs" you should generally think "API breakage" and fear the worst.

Can we get a mask on this? I quite dislike a situation where a user runs a software vulnerable to RCE without knowing it.

Sorry, yes, it's from dev. Bleh.

I'm going to do this unless there's a good reason not to. It's not with a view to removal, but I think it's fair so users can be aware of the risk.

With regard to what you should do, Jer, I don't have any great suggestions here. This is a horrible situation because of the breakages on the reverse dependencies with so many of upstream's changes, so a snapshot isn't feasible. :/

So, my inclination is: mask + wait.

  In nDPI through 3.2, the H.323 dissector is vulnerable to a heap-based
  buffer over-read in ndpi_search_h323 in lib/protocols/h323.c, as
  demonstrated by a payload packet length that is too short.

CVE-2020-15471 (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-15471):

Why did you mask pmacct? Its nDPI dependency is optional.

I added those in 3.2-r1 but you seem to have ignored that in your review. I still don't see any correlation between the eight(!) CVEs and any commits or releases that purport to fix those.

It isn't feasible? You say this after 3.2-r1 was committed. Not sure whether that should have been expressly mentioned here or whether it should be regarded as due diligence to check commits relevant to bug reports before masking packages.

    package.mask: unmask net-libs/nDPI and friends
    
    The lua note is long obsolete (see the mentioned bug), and
    net-analyzer/pmacct, net-analyzer/ntopng, and net-libs/nDPI are all on
    their latest versions and have been cleaned up. Finally safe to drop
    this mask.
