Netatalk before 3.2.1 has an off-by-one error and resultant heap-based buffer overflow because of setting ibuf[len] to '\0' in FPMapName in afp_mapname in etc/afpd/directory.c. 2.4.1 and 3.1.19 are also fixed versions.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-7347-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Netatalk did not properly manage memory under certain circumstances. A remote     attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-38439, CVE-2024-38440,     CVE-2024-38441)

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

The remote Debian 11 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3968 advisory.

    Package        : netatalk     Version        : 3.1.12~ds-8+deb11u2     CVE ID         : CVE-2022-22995 CVE-2024-38439 CVE-2024-38440                      CVE-2024-38441


    Several issues have been found in netatalk, an Apple Filing Protocol     service. Three issues are related to off-by-one errorrs and resultant     heap-based buffer overflow. One issue is related to primitives offered by     SMB and AFP, which might allow an attacker to write arbitrary files and     eventually execute arbitrary code.



    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     3.1.12~ds-8+deb11u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your netatalk packages.
