Use-after-free vulnerability in the mm_answer_pam_free_ctx function in monitor.c in sshd in OpenSSH before 7.0 on non-OpenBSD platforms might allow local users to gain privileges by leveraging control of the sshd uid to send an unexpectedly early MONITOR_REQ_PAM_FREE_CTX request.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - openssh: MaxAuthTries limit bypass via duplicates in KbdInteractiveDevices (CVE-2015-5600)

  - openssh: Bounds check can be evaded in the shared memory manager used by pre-authentication compression     support (CVE-2016-10012)

  - The ssh_gssapi_parse_ename function in gss-serv.c in OpenSSH 5.8 and earlier, when gssapi-with-mic     authentication is enabled, allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (memory     consumption) via a large value in a certain length field. NOTE: there may be limited scenarios in which     this issue is relevant. (CVE-2011-5000)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - openssh: MaxAuthTries limit bypass via duplicates in KbdInteractiveDevices (CVE-2015-5600)

  - openssh: possible fallback from untrusted to trusted X11 forwarding (CVE-2016-1908)

  - The default configuration of OpenSSH through 6.1 enforces a fixed time limit between establishing a TCP     connection and completing a login, which makes it easier for remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (connection-slot exhaustion) by periodically making many new TCP connections. (CVE-2010-5107)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The version of Junos OS installed on the remote host is prior to 12.3X48-D55, 12.3R12-S13, 15.1X49-D100, 15.1F6-S12, 16.1R3-S4, 16.2R1-S4, 17.1R1-S2, or 17.2R1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the JSA10940 advisory. Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to its self-reported version number, the remote pfSense install is prior to 2.2.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as stated in the referenced vendor advisories.

Security Fix(es) :

  - It was found that the OpenSSH client did not properly     enforce the ForwardX11Timeout setting. A malicious or     compromised remote X application could possibly use this     flaw to establish a trusted connection to the local X     server, even if only untrusted X11 forwarding was     requested. (CVE-2015-5352)

  - A flaw was found in the way OpenSSH handled PAM     authentication when using privilege separation. An     attacker with valid credentials on the system and able     to fully compromise a non-privileged pre-authentication     process using a different flaw could use this flaw to     authenticate as other users. (CVE-2015-6563)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in OpenSSH. An attacker     able to fully compromise a non-privileged     pre-authentication process using a different flaw could     possibly cause sshd to crash or execute arbitrary code     with root privileges. (CVE-2015-6564)

  - An access flaw was discovered in OpenSSH; the OpenSSH     client did not correctly handle failures to generate     authentication cookies for untrusted X11 forwarding. A     malicious or compromised remote X application could     possibly use this flaw to establish a trusted connection     to the local X server, even if only untrusted X11     forwarding was requested. (CVE-2016-1908)

CVE-2015-6563 The monitor component in sshd in OpenSSH before 7.0 on non-OpenBSD platforms accepts extraneous username data in MONITOR_REQ_PAM_INIT_CTX requests, which allows local users to conduct impersonation attacks by leveraging any SSH login access in conjunction with control of the sshd uid to send a crafted MONITOR_REQ_PWNAM request, related to monitor.c and monitor_wrap.c.

CVE-2015-6564 Use-after-free vulnerability in the mm_answer_pam_free_ctx function in monitor.c in sshd in OpenSSH before 7.0 on non-OpenBSD platforms might allow local users to gain privileges by leveraging control of the sshd uid to send an unexpectedly early MONITOR_REQ_PAM_FREE_CTX request.

Versions of OpenSSH server before 7.0 are affected by multiple vulnerabilities: 

 - A flaw in the 'kbdint_next_device()' function in 'file auth2-chall.c' that allows the circumvention of MaxAuthTries during keyboard-interactive authentication. An attacker can exploit this issue to force the same authentication method to be tried thousands of times in a single pass by using a crafted keyboard-interactive 'devices' string, thus allowing a brute-force attack or causing a denial of service. (CVE-2015-5600) 
 - A flaw in sshd(8) is due to the program setting insecure world-writable permissions for TTYs allowing a local attacker to execute arbitrary commands for logged-in users by injecting crafted terminal escape sequences. (CVE-2015-6565) 
 - A flaw in the monitor component is triggered when handling username data in MONITOR_REQ_PAM_INIT_CTX requests allowing a local user to leverage the SSH login access and control of the sshd(8) UID to send a MONITOR_REQ_PWNAM request to conduct an impersonation attack. (CVE-2015-6563) 
 - A use-after-free error in the 'mm_answer_pam_free_ctx()' function of monitor.c is triggered when handling a MONITOR_REQ_PAM_FREE_CTX request allowing a local attacker to take control of the sshd UID to send a request leading to a dereference of already freed memory and gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2015-6564)

Note: NNM has solely relied on the banner of the SSH client to perform this check. Any backported patches or workarounds such as recompiling or edited configurations are not observable through the banner.

A flaw was found in the way OpenSSH handled PAM authentication when using privilege separation. An attacker with valid credentials on the system and able to fully compromise a non-privileged pre-authentication process using a different flaw could use this flaw to authenticate as other users. (CVE-2015-6563)

A use-after-free flaw was found in OpenSSH. An attacker able to fully compromise a non-privileged pre-authentication process using a different flaw could possibly cause sshd to crash or execute arbitrary code with root privileges. (CVE-2015-6564)

It was discovered that the OpenSSH sshd daemon did not check the list of keyboard-interactive authentication methods for duplicates. A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass the MaxAuthTries limit, making it easier to perform password guessing attacks. (CVE-2015-5600)

It was found that the OpenSSH ssh-agent, a program to hold private keys used for public key authentication, was vulnerable to password guessing attacks. An attacker able to connect to the agent could use this flaw to conduct a brute-force attack to unlock keys in the ssh-agent.

This update fixes the following bugs :

  - Previously, the sshd_config(5) man page was misleading     and could thus confuse the user. This update improves     the man page text to clearly describe the AllowGroups     feature.

  - The limit for the function for restricting the number of     files listed using the wildcard character (*) that     prevents the Denial of Service (DoS) for both server and     client was previously set too low. Consequently, the     user reaching the limit was prevented from listing a     directory with a large number of files over Secure File     Transfer Protocol (SFTP). This update increases the     aforementioned limit, thus fixing this bug.

  - When the ForceCommand option with a pseudoterminal was     used and the MaxSession option was set to '2',     multiplexed SSH connections did not work as expected.
    After the user attempted to open a second multiplexed     connection, the attempt failed if the first connection     was still open. This update modifies OpenSSH to issue     only one audit message per session, and the user is thus     able to open two multiplexed connections in this     situation.

  - The ssh-copy-id utility failed if the account on the     remote server did not use an sh-like shell. Remote     commands have been modified to run in an sh-like shell,     and ssh-copy-id now works also with non-sh-like shells.

  - Due to a race condition between auditing messages and     answers when using ControlMaster multiplexing, one     session in the shared connection randomly and     unexpectedly exited the connection. This update fixes     the race condition in the auditing code, and     multiplexing connections now work as expected even with     a number of sessions created at once.

In addition, this update adds the following enhancements :

  - As not all Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)     servers possess a default schema, as expected by the     ssh-ldap-helper program, this update provides the user     with an ability to adjust the LDAP query to get public     keys from servers with a different schema, while the     default functionality stays untouched.

  - With this enhancement update, the administrator is able     to set permissions for files uploaded using Secure File     Transfer Protocol (SFTP).

  - This update provides the LDAP schema in LDAP Data     Interchange Format (LDIF) format as a complement to the     old schema previously accepted by OpenLDAP.

  - With this update, the user can selectively disable the     Generic Security Services API (GSSAPI) key exchange     algorithms as any normal key exchange.

OpenSSH was updated to fix several security issues and bugs.

Please note that due to a bug in the previous shipped openssh version, sshd might not correctly restart. Please verify that the ssh daemon is running after installing this update.

These security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2015-5352: The x11_open_helper function, when     ForwardX11Trusted mode is not used, lacked a check of     the refusal deadline for X connections, which made it     easier for remote attackers to bypass intended access     restrictions via a connection outside of the permitted     time window. (bsc#936695)

  - CVE-2015-5600: The kbdint_next_device function in     auth2-chall.c in sshd did not properly restrict the     processing of keyboard-interactive devices within a     single connection, which made it easier for remote     attackers to conduct brute-force attacks or cause a     denial of service (CPU consumption) via a long and     duplicative list in the ssh

    -oKbdInteractiveDevices option, as demonstrated by a     modified client that provides a different password for     each pam element on this list. (bsc#938746)

  - CVE-2015-4000: Removed and disabled weak DH groups to     address LOGJAM. (bsc#932483)

OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences. Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.

Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to PAM support.
Attackers who could successfully compromise the pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid credentials on the host could impersonate other users.

Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the pre-authentication process for remote code execution.

According to its banner, the version of OpenSSH running on the remote host is prior to 7.0. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A security bypass vulnerability exists in the     kbdint_next_device() function in file auth2-chall.c that     allows the circumvention of MaxAuthTries during     keyboard-interactive authentication. A remote attacker     can exploit this issue to force the same authentication     method to be tried thousands of times in a single pass     by using a crafted keyboard-interactive 'devices'     string, thus allowing a brute-force attack or causing a     denial of service. (CVE-2015-5600)

  - A security bypass vulnerability exists in sshd due to     improper handling of username data in     MONITOR_REQ_PAM_INIT_CTX requests. A local attacker can     exploit this, by sending a MONITOR_REQ_PWNAM request, to     conduct an impersonation attack. Note that this issue     only affects Portable OpenSSH. (CVE-2015-6563)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists due to a     use-after-free error in sshd that is triggered when     handling a MONITOR_REQ_PAM_FREE_CTX request. A local     attacker can exploit this to gain elevated privileges.
    Note that this issue only affects Portable OpenSSH.
    (CVE-2015-6564)

  - A local command execution vulnerability exists in sshd     due to setting insecure world-writable permissions for     TTYs. A local attacker can exploit this, by injecting     crafted terminal escape sequences, to execute commands     for logged-in users. (CVE-2015-6565)
