In systemd before v242-rc4, it was discovered that pam_systemd does not properly sanitize the environment before using the XDG_SEAT variable. It is possible for an attacker, in some particular configurations, to set a XDG_SEAT environment variable which allows for commands to be checked against polkit policies using the "allow_active" element rather than "allow_any".

An update of the systemd package has been released.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 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.

  - systemd: Mishandled symlinks in systemd-tmpfiles allows local users to obtain ownership of arbitrary files     (CVE-2018-6954)

  - systemd, when updating file permissions, allows local users to change the permissions and SELinux security     contexts for arbitrary files via a symlink attack on unspecified files. (CVE-2013-4392)

  - The machinectl command in oci-register-machine allows local users to list running containers and possibly     obtain sensitive information by running that command. (CVE-2016-6349)

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 Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RLSA-2021:1611 advisory.

  - In systemd before v242-rc4, it was discovered that pam_systemd does not properly sanitize the environment     before using the XDG_SEAT variable. It is possible for an attacker, in some particular configurations, to     set a XDG_SEAT environment variable which allows for commands to be checked against polkit policies using     the allow_active element rather than allow_any. (CVE-2019-3842)

  - systemd through v245 mishandles numerical usernames such as ones composed of decimal digits or 0x followed     by hex digits, as demonstrated by use of root privileges when privileges of the 0x0 user account were     intended. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-1000082. (CVE-2020-13776)

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

The version of systemd installed on the remote host is prior to 219-78. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2022-1854 advisory.

  - In systemd before v242-rc4, it was discovered that pam_systemd does not properly sanitize the environment     before using the XDG_SEAT variable. It is possible for an attacker, in some particular configurations, to     set a XDG_SEAT environment variable which allows for commands to be checked against polkit policies using     the allow_active element rather than allow_any. (CVE-2019-3842)

  - An exploitable denial-of-service vulnerability exists in Systemd 245. A specially crafted DHCP FORCERENEW     packet can cause a server running the DHCP client to be vulnerable to a DHCP ACK spoofing attack. An     attacker can forge a pair of FORCERENEW and DCHP ACK packets to reconfigure the server. (CVE-2020-13529)

  - systemd through v245 mishandles numerical usernames such as ones composed of decimal digits or 0x followed     by hex digits, as demonstrated by use of root privileges when privileges of the 0x0 user account were     intended. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-1000082. (CVE-2020-13776)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in systemd. This issue occurs due to the on_stream_io() function     and dns_stream_complete() function in 'resolved-dns-stream.c' not incrementing the reference counting for     the DnsStream object. Therefore, other functions and callbacks called can dereference the DNSStream     object, causing the use-after-free when the reference is still used later. (CVE-2022-2526)

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

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.02, has systemd packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - An issue was discovered in button_open in login/logind-button.c in systemd before 243. When executing the     udevadm trigger command, a memory leak may occur. (CVE-2019-20386)

  - In systemd before v242-rc4, it was discovered that pam_systemd does not properly sanitize the environment     before using the XDG_SEAT variable. It is possible for an attacker, in some particular configurations, to     set a XDG_SEAT environment variable which allows for commands to be checked against polkit policies using     the allow_active element rather than allow_any.

NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-1000082. (CVE-2020-13776)

  - basic/unit-name.c in systemd prior to 246.15, 247.8, 248.5, and 249.1 has a Memory Allocation with an     Excessive Size Value (involving strdupa and alloca for a pathname controlled by a local attacker) that     results in an operating system crash. (CVE-2021-33910)

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

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2021:3900 advisory.

    The systemd packages contain systemd, a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with the SysV and     LSB init scripts. It provides aggressive parallelism capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for     starting services, offers on-demand starting of daemons, and keeps track of processes using Linux cgroups.
    In addition, it supports snapshotting and restoring of the system state, maintains mount and automount     points, and implements an elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can also work     as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit.

    Security Fix(es):

    * systemd: Spoofing of XDG_SEAT allows for actions to be checked against allow_active instead of     allow_any (CVE-2019-3842)

    * systemd: Mishandles numerical usernames beginning with decimal digits or 0x followed by hexadecimal     digits (CVE-2020-13776)

    For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and     other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

According to the versions of the systemd packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - It was discovered that pam_systemd does not properly     sanitize the environment before using the XDG_SEAT     variable. It is possible for an attacker, in some     particular configurations, to set a XDG_SEAT     environment variable which allows for commands to be     checked against polkit policies using the     'allow_active' element rather than     'allow_any'.(CVE-2019-3842)

  - It has been discovered that systemd-tmpfiles mishandles     symbolic links present in non-terminal path components.
    In some configurations a local user could use this     vulnerability to get access to arbitrary files when the     systemd-tmpfiles command is run.(CVE-2018-6954)

This update for systemd fixes the following issues :

Security issues fixed :

CVE-2019-3842: Fixed a privilege escalation in pam_systemd which could be exploited by a local user (bsc#1132348).

CVE-2019-6454: Fixed a denial of service via crafted D-Bus message (bsc#1125352).

CVE-2019-3843, CVE-2019-3844: Fixed a privilege escalation where services with DynamicUser could gain new privileges or create SUID/SGID binaries (bsc#1133506, bsc#1133509).

Non-security issued fixed: logind: fix killing of scopes (bsc#1125604)

namespace: make MountFlags=shared work again (bsc#1124122)

rules: load drivers only on 'add' events (bsc#1126056)

sysctl: Don't pass null directive argument to '%s' (bsc#1121563)

According to the versions of the systemd packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - It was discovered that a systemd service that uses     DynamicUser property can get new privileges through the     execution of SUID binaries, which would allow a     cooperating process to create binaries owned by the     service transient group with the setgid bit set. A     local attacker may use this flaw to access resources     that will be owned by a potentially different service     in the future when the GID will be     recycled.(CVE-2019-3844)

  - It was discovered that a systemd service that uses     DynamicUser property can create a SUID/SGID binary that     would be allowed to run as the transient service     UID/GID even after the service is terminated. A local     attacker may use this flaw to access resources that     will be owned by a potentially different service in the     future when the UID/GID will be     recycled.(CVE-2019-3843)

  - In systemd before v242-rc4, it was discovered that     pam_systemd does not properly sanitize the environment     before using the XDG_SEAT variable. It is possible for     an attacker, in some particular configurations, to set     a XDG_SEAT environment variable which allows for     commands to be checked against polkit policies using     the 'allow_active' element rather than     'allow_any'.(CVE-2019-3842)

According to the version of the systemd packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

  - systemd: Spoofing of XDG_SEAT allows for actions to be     checked against 'allow_active' instead of     'allow_any'.(CVE-2019-3842)

This update for systemd fixes the following issues :

Security issues fixed :

  - CVE-2018-6954: Fixed a vulnerability in the symlink     handling of systemd-tmpfiles which allowed a local user     to obtain ownership of arbitrary files (bsc#1080919).

  - CVE-2019-3842: Fixed a vulnerability in pam_systemd     which allowed a local user to escalate privileges     (bsc#1132348).

  - CVE-2019-6454: Fixed a denial of service caused by long     dbus messages (bsc#1125352).

Non-security issues fixed :

  - systemd-coredump: generate a stack trace of all core     dumps (jsc#SLE-5933)

  - udevd: notify when max number value of children is     reached only once per batch of events (bsc#1132400)

  - sd-bus: bump message queue size again (bsc#1132721)

  - core: only watch processes when it's really necessary     (bsc#955942 bsc#1128657)

  - rules: load drivers only on 'add' events (bsc#1126056)

  - sysctl: Don't pass null directive argument to '%s'     (bsc#1121563)

  - Do not automatically online memory on s390x     (bsc#1127557)

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-3938-1 advisory.

    Jann Horn discovered that pam_systemd created logind sessions using some parameters from the environment.
    A local attacker could exploit this in order to spoof the active session and gain additional PolicyKit     privileges.

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

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

Jann Horn discovered that the PAM module in systemd insecurely uses the environment and lacks seat verification permitting spoofing an active session to PolicyKit. A remote attacker with SSH access can take advantage of this issue to gain PolicyKit privileges that are normally only granted to clients in an active session on the local console.
