An update of the samba package has been released.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202310-06 (Heimdal: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

  - All Samba versions 4.x.x before 4.9.17, 4.10.x before 4.10.11 and 4.11.x before 4.11.3 have an issue,     where the S4U (MS-SFU) Kerberos delegation model includes a feature allowing for a subset of clients to be     opted out of constrained delegation in any way, either S4U2Self or regular Kerberos authentication, by     forcing all tickets for these clients to be non-forwardable. In AD this is implemented by a user attribute     delegation_not_allowed (aka not-delegated), which translates to disallow-forwardable. However the Samba AD     DC does not do that for S4U2Self and does set the forwardable flag even if the impersonated client has the     not-delegated flag set. (CVE-2019-14870)

  - Heimdal before 7.7.1 allows attackers to cause a NULL pointer dereference in a SPNEGO acceptor via a     preferred_mech_type of GSS_C_NO_OID and a nonzero initial_response value to send_accept. (CVE-2021-44758)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in Samba within the GSSAPI unwrap_des() and     unwrap_des3() routines of Heimdal. The DES and Triple-DES decryption routines in the Heimdal GSSAPI     library allow a length-limited write buffer overflow on malloc() allocated memory when presented with a     maliciously small packet. This flaw allows a remote user to send specially crafted malicious data to the     application, possibly resulting in a denial of service (DoS) attack. (CVE-2022-3437)

  - A vulnerability classified as critical was found in SourceCodester eLearning System 1.0. This     vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /admin/students/manage.php. The manipulation of the     argument id leads to sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed     to the public and may be used. VDB-212014 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability.
    (CVE-2022-3671)

  - Heimdal is an implementation of ASN.1/DER, PKIX, and Kerberos. Versions prior to 7.7.1 are vulnerable to a     denial of service vulnerability in Heimdal's PKI certificate validation library, affecting the KDC (via     PKINIT) and kinit (via PKINIT), as well as any third-party applications using Heimdal's libhx509. Users     should upgrade to Heimdal 7.7.1 or 7.8. There are no known workarounds for this issue. (CVE-2022-41916)

  - PAC parsing in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.19.4 and 1.20.x before 1.20.1 has integer overflows that     may lead to remote code execution (in KDC, kadmind, or a GSS or Kerberos application server) on 32-bit     platforms (which have a resultant heap-based buffer overflow), and cause a denial of service on other     platforms. This occurs in krb5_pac_parse in lib/krb5/krb/pac.c. Heimdal before 7.7.1 has a similar bug.
    (CVE-2022-42898)

  - Heimdal before 7.7.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code because of an invalid free in the     ASN.1 codec used by the Key Distribution Center (KDC). (CVE-2022-44640)

  - The fix for CVE-2022-3437 included changing memcmp to be constant time and a workaround for a compiler bug     by adding != 0 comparisons to the result of memcmp. When these patches were backported to the     heimdal-7.7.1 and heimdal-7.8.0 branches (and possibly other branches) a logic inversion sneaked in     causing the validation of message integrity codes in gssapi/arcfour to be inverted. (CVE-2022-45142)

  -  Please review the referenced CVE identifiers for details.  (CVE-2022-44758)

  - All Samba versions 4.x.x before 4.9.17, 4.10.x before 4.10.11 and 4.11.x before 4.11.3 have an issue,     where the S4U (MS-SFU) Kerberos delegation model includes a feature allowing for a subset of clients to be     opted out of constrained delegation in any way, either S4U2Self or regular Kerberos authentication, by     forcing all tickets for these clients to be non-forwardable. In AD this is implemented by a user attribute     delegation_not_allowed (aka not-delegated), which translates to disallow-forwardable. However the Samba AD     DC does not do that for S4U2Self and does set the forwardable flag even if the impersonated client has the     not-delegated flag set. (CVE-2019-14870)

  - A null pointer de-reference was found in the way samba kerberos server handled missing sname in TGS-REQ     (Ticket Granting Server - Request). An authenticated user could use this flaw to crash the samba server.
    (CVE-2021-3671)

  - Heimdal is an implementation of ASN.1/DER, PKIX, and Kerberos. Versions prior to 7.7.1 are vulnerable to a     denial of service vulnerability in Heimdal's PKI certificate validation library, affecting the KDC (via     PKINIT) and kinit (via PKINIT), as well as any third-party applications using Heimdal's libhx509. Users     should upgrade to Heimdal 7.7.1 or 7.8. There are no known workarounds for this issue. (CVE-2022-41916)

  - The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the GSSAPI unwrap_des() and unwrap_des3() routines     of Heimdal. A remote user can send specially crafted data to the application, trigger a heap-based buffer     overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack. (CVE-2022-3437)

  - The Kerberos libraries used by Samba provide a mechanism for authenticating a user or service by means of     tickets that can contain Privilege Attribute Certificates (PACs). Both the Heimdal and MIT Kerberos     libraries, and so the embedded Heimdal shipped by Samba suffer from an integer multiplication overflow     when calculating how many bytes to allocate for a buffer for the parsed PAC. On a 32-bit system an     overflow allows placement of 16-byte chunks of entirely attacker- controlled data. (Because the user's     control over this calculation is limited to an unsigned 32-bit value, 64-bit systems are not impacted).
    The server most vulnerable is the KDC, as it will parse an attacker-controlled PAC in the S4U2Proxy     handler. The secondary risk is to Kerberos-enabled file server installations in a non-AD realm. A non-AD     Heimdal KDC controlling such a realm may pass on an attacker-controlled PAC within the service ticket.
