All bug reports should be filed under the "Samba 4.1 and newer" product in the project's Bugzilla database (https://bugzilla.samba.org/). ====================================================================== == Our Code, Our Bugs, Our Responsibility. == The Samba Team ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ============================= Release Notes for Samba 4.8.7 November 27, 2018 ============================= This is a security release in order to address the following defects: o CVE-2018-14629 (Unprivileged adding of CNAME record causing loop in AD Internal DNS server) o CVE-2018-16841 (Double-free in Samba AD DC KDC with PKINIT) o CVE-2018-16851 (NULL pointer de-reference in Samba AD DC LDAP server) o CVE-2018-16853 (Samba AD DC S4U2Self crash in experimental MIT Kerberos configuration (unsupported)) ======= Details ======= o CVE-2018-14629: All versions of Samba from 4.0.0 onwards are vulnerable to infinite query recursion caused by CNAME loops. Any dns record can be added via ldap by an unprivileged user using the ldbadd tool, so this is a security issue. o CVE-2018-16841: When configured to accept smart-card authentication, Samba's KDC will call talloc_free() twice on the same memory if the principal in a validly signed certificate does not match the principal in the AS-REQ. This is only possible after authentication with a trusted certificate. talloc is robust against further corruption from a double-free with talloc_free() and directly calls abort(), terminating the KDC process. There is no further vulnerability associated with this issue, merely a denial of service. o CVE-2018-16851: During the processing of an LDAP search before Samba's AD DC returns the LDAP entries to the client, the entries are cached in a single memory object with a maximum size of 256MB. When this size is reached, the Samba process providing the LDAP service will follow the NULL pointer, terminating the process. There is no further vulnerability associated with this issue, merely a denial of service. o CVE-2018-16853: A user in a Samba AD domain can crash the KDC when Samba is built in the non-default MIT Kerberos configuration. With this advisory we clarify that the MIT Kerberos build of the Samba AD DC is considered experimental. Therefore the Samba Team will not issue security patches for this configuration. For more details and workarounds, please refer to the security advisories. Changes since 4.8.6: -------------------- o Andrew Bartlett * BUG 13628: CVE-2018-16841: heimdal: Fix segfault on PKINIT with mis-matching principal. * BUG 13678: CVE-2018-16853: build: The Samba AD DC, when build with MIT Kerberos is experimental o Aaron Haslett * BUG 13600: CVE-2018-14629: dns: CNAME loop prevention using counter. o Garming Sam * BUG 13674: CVE-2018-16851: ldap_server: Check ret before manipulating blob. ####################################### Reporting bugs & Development Discussion ####################################### Please discuss this release on the samba-technical mailing list or by joining the #samba-technical IRC channel on irc.freenode.net.

If you do report problems then please try to send high quality feedback. If you don't provide vital information to help us track down the problem then you will probably be ignored. All bug reports should be filed under the "Samba 4.1 and newer" product in the project's Bugzilla database (https://bugzilla.samba.org/). ====================================================================== == Our Code, Our Bugs, Our Responsibility. == The Samba Team ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ============================= Release Notes for Samba 4.8.0 March 13, 2018 ============================= This is the first stable release of the Samba 4.8 release series. Please read the release notes carefully before upgrading. UPGRADING ========= New GUID Index mode in sam.ldb for the AD DC -------------------------------------------- Users who upgrade a Samba AD DC in-place will experience a short delay in the first startup of Samba while the sam.ldb is re-indexed. Unlike in previous releases a transparent downgrade is not possible. If you wish to downgrade such a DB to a Samba 4.7 or earlier version, please run the source4/scripting/bin/sambaundoguididx script first. Domain member setups require winbindd ------------------------------------- Setups with "security = domain" or "security = ads" require a running 'winbindd' now. The fallback that smbd directly contacts domain controllers is gone. smbclient reparse point symlink parameters reversed --------------------------------------------------- See the more detailed description below. Changed trusted domains listing with wbinfo -m --verbose -------------------------------------------------------- See the more detailed description below. NEW FEATURES/CHANGES ==================== New GUID Index mode in sam.ldb for the AD DC -------------------------------------------- The new layout used for sam.ldb is GUID, rather than DN oriented. This provides Samba's Active Directory Domain Controller with a faster database, particularly at larger scale. The underlying DB is still TDB, simply the choice of key has changed. The new mode is not optional, so no configuration is required. Older Samba versions cannot read the new database (see the upgrade note above). KDC GPO application ------------------- Adds Group Policy support for the Samba kdc. Applies password policies (minimum/maximum password age, minimum password length, and password complexity) and kerberos policies (user/service ticket lifetime and renew lifetime). Adds the samba_gpoupdate script for applying and unapplying policy. Can be applied automatically by setting 'apply group policies = yes'. Time Machine Support with vfs_fruit ----------------------------------- Samba can be configured as a Time Machine target for Apple Mac devices through the vfs_fruit module. When enabling a share for Time Machine support the relevant Avahi records to support discovery will be published for installations that have been built against the Avahi client library. Shares can be designated as a Time Machine share with the following setting: 'fruit:time machine = yes' Support for lower casing the MDNS Name -------------------------------------- Allows the server name that is advertised through MDNS to be set to the hostname rather than the Samba NETBIOS name. This allows an administrator to make Samba registered MDNS records match the case of the hostname rather than being in all capitals. This can be set with the following settings: 'mdns name = mdns' Encrypted secrets ----------------- Attributes deemed to be sensitive are now encrypted on disk. The sensitive values are currently: pekList msDS-ExecuteScriptPassword currentValue dBCSPwd initialAuthIncoming initialAuthOutgoing lmPwdHistory ntPwdHistory priorValue supplementalCredentials trustAuthIncoming trustAuthOutgoing unicodePwd clearTextPassword This encryption is enabled by default on a new provision or join, it can be disabled at provision or join time with the new option '--plaintext-secrets'. However, an in-place upgrade will not encrypt the database. Once encrypted, it is not possible to do an in-place downgrade (eg to 4.7) of the database. To obtain an unencrypted copy of the database a new DC join should be performed, specifying the '--plaintext-secrets' option. The key file "encrypted_secrets.key" is created in the same directory as the database and should NEVER be disclosed. It is included by the samba_backup script. Active Directory replication visualisation ------------------------------------------ To work out what is happening in a replication graph, it is sometimes helpful to use visualisations. We introduce a samba-tool subcommand to write Graphviz dot output and generate text-based heatmaps of the distance in hops between DCs. There are two subcommands, two graphical modes, and (roughly) two modes of operation with respect to the location of authority. `samba-tool visualize ntdsconn` looks at NTDS Connections. `samba-tool visualize reps` looks at repsTo and repsFrom objects. In '--distance' mode (default), the distances between DCs are shown in a matrix in the terminal. With '--color=yes', this is depicted as a heatmap. With '--utf8' it is a lttle prettier. In '--dot' mode, Graphviz dot output is generated. When viewed using dot or xdot, this shows the network as a graph with DCs as vertices and connections edges. Certain types of degenerate edges are shown in different colours or line-styles. smbclient reparse point symlink parameters reversed --------------------------------------------------- A bug in smbclient caused the 'symlink' command to reverse the meaning of the new name and link target parameters when creating a reparse point symlink against a Windows server. As this is a little used feature the ordering of these parameters has been reversed to match the parameter ordering of the UNIX extensions 'symlink' command. The usage message for this command has also been improved to remove confusion. Winbind changes --------------- The dependency to global list of trusted domains within the winbindd processes has been reduced a lot. The construction of that global list is not reliable and often incomplete in complex trust setups. In most situations the list is not needed any more for winbindd to operate correctly. E.g. for plain file serving via SMB using a simple idmap setup with autorid, tdb or ad. However some more complex setups require the list, e.g. if you specify idmap backends for specific domains. Some pam_winbind setups may also require the global list. If you have a setup that doesn't require the global list, you should set "winbind scan trusted domains = no". Improved support for trusted domains (as AD DC) ----------------------------------------------- The support for trusted domains/forests has improved a lot. External domain trusts, as well a transitive forest trusts, are supported in both directions (inbound and outbound) for Kerberos and NTLM authentication now. The LSA LookupNames and LookupSids implementations support resolving names and sids from trusts domains/forest now. This is important in order to allow Samba based domain members to make use of the trust. However there are currently still a few limitations: - It's not possible to add users/groups of a trusted domain into domain groups. So group memberships are not expanded on trust boundaries. See https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13300 - Both sides of the trust need to fully trust each other! - No SID filtering rules are applied at all! - This means DCs of domain A can grant domain admin rights in domain B. - Selective (CROSS_ORIGANIZATION) authentication is not supported. It's possible to create such a trust, but the KDC and winbindd ignore them. Changed trusted domains listing with wbinfo -m --verbose -------------------------------------------------------- The trust properties printed by wbinfo -m --verbose have been changed to correctly reflect the view of the system where wbinfo is executed. The trust type field in particular can show additional values that correctly reflect the type of the trust: "Local" for the local SAM and BUILTIN, "Workstation" for a workstation trust to the primary domain, "RWDC" for the SAM on a AD DC, "RODC" for the SAM on a read-only DC, "PDC" for the SAM on a NT4-style DC, "Forest" for a AD forest trust and "External" for quarantined, external or NT4-style trusts. Indirect trusts are shown as "Routed" including the routing domain. Example, on a AD DC (SDOM1): Domain Name DNS Domain Trust Type Transitive In Out BUILTIN Local SDOM1 sdom1.site RWDC WDOM3 wdom3.site Forest Yes No Yes WDOM2 wdom2.site Forest Yes Yes Yes SUBDOM31 subdom31.wdom3.site Routed (via WDOM3) SUBDOM21 subdom21.wdom2.site Routed (via WDOM2) Same setup, on a member of WDOM2: Domain Name DNS Domain Trust Type Transitive In Out BUILTIN Local TITAN Local WDOM2 wdom2.site Workstation Yes No Yes WDOM1 wdom1.site Routed (via WDOM2) WDOM3 wdom3.site Routed (via WDOM2) SUBDOM21 subdom21.wdom2.site Routed (via WDOM2) SDOM1 sdom1.site Routed (via WDOM2) SUBDOM11 subdom11.wdom1.site Routed (via WDOM2) The list of trusts may be incomplete and additional domains may appear as "Routed" if a user of an unknown domain is successfully authenticated. VirusFilter VFS module ---------------------- This new module integrates with Sophos, F-Secure and ClamAV anti-virus software to provide scanning and filtering of files on a Samba share. Local authorization plugin for MIT Kerberos ------------------------------------------- This plugin controls the relationship between Kerberos principals and AD accounts through winbind. The module receives the Kerberos principal and the local account name as inputs and can then check if they match. This can resolve issues with canonicalized names returned by Kerberos within AD. If the user tries to log in as 'alice', but the samAccountName is set to ALICE (uppercase), Kerberos would return ALICE as the username. Kerberos would not be able to map 'alice' to 'ALICE' in this case and auth would fail. With this plugin account names can be correctly mapped. This only applies to GSSAPI authentication, not for the geting the initial ticket granting ticket. New glusterfs_fuse VFS module ----------------------------- The new vfs_glusterfs_fuse module improves performance when Samba accesses a glusterfs volume mounted via FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace as part of the Linux kernel). It achieves that by leveraging a mechanism to retrieve the appropriate case of filenames by querying a specific extended attribute in the filesystem. No extra configuration is required to use this module, only glusterfs_fuse needs to be set in the "vfs objects" parameter. Further details can be found in the vfs_glusterfs_fuse(8) manpage. This new vfs_glusterfs_fuse module does not replace the existing vfs_glusterfs module, it just provides an additional, alternative mechanism to access a Gluster volume. REMOVED FEATURES ================ 'net serverid' commands removed ------------------------------- The two commands 'net serverid list' and 'net serverid wipe' have been removed, because the file serverid.tdb is not used anymore. 'net serverid list' can be replaced by listing all files in the subdirectory "msg.lock" of Samba's "lock directory". The unique id listed by 'net serverid list' is stored in every process' lockfile in "msg.lock". 'net serverid wipe' is not necessary anymore. It was meant primarily for clustered environments, where the serverid.tdb file was not properly cleaned up after single node crashes. Nowadays smbd and winbind take care of cleaning up the msg.lock and msg.sock directories automatically. NT4-style replication based net commands removed ------------------------------------------------ The following commands and sub-commands have been removed from the "net" utility: net rpc samdump net rpc vampire ldif Also, replicating from a real NT4 domain with "net rpc vampire" and "net rpc vampire keytab" has been removed. The NT4-based commands were accidentally broken in 2013, and nobody noticed the breakage. So instead of fixing them including tests (which would have meant writing a server for the protocols, which we don't have) we decided to remove them. For the same reason, the "samsync", "samdeltas" and "database_redo" commands have been removed from rpcclient. "net rpc vampire keytab" from Active Directory domains continues to be supported. vfs_aio_linux module removed ---------------------------- The current Linux kernel aio does not match what Samba would do. Shipping code that uses it leads people to false assumptions. Samba implements async I/O based on threads by default, there is no special module required to see benefits of read and write request being sent do the disk in parallel. smb.conf changes ================ Parameter Name Description Default -------------- ----------- ------- apply group policies New no auth methods Removed binddns dir New client schannel Default changed/ yes Deprecated gpo update command New ldap ssl ads Deprecated map untrusted to domain Removed oplock contention limit Removed prefork children New 1 mdns name New netbios fruit:time machine New false profile acls Removed use spnego Removed server schannel Default changed/ yes Deprecated unicode Deprecated winbind scan trusted domains New yes winbind trusted domains only Removed CHANGES SINCE 4.8.0rc4 ====================== o Jeremy Allison * BUG 11343: CVE-2018-1050: Codenomicon crashes in spoolss server code. o Ralph Boehme * BUG 13272: CVE-2018-1057: Unprivileged user can change any user (and admin) password. * BUG 13313: nsswitch: Fix wbinfo -m --verbose trust type "Local". o Stefan Metzmacher * BUG 13272: CVE-2018-1057: Unprivileged user can change any user (and admin) password. o Dan Robertson * BUG 13310: libsmb: Use smb2 tcon if conn_protocol >= SMB2_02. o Andreas Schneider * BUG 13315: s3:smbd: Do not crash if we fail to init the session table.
