CVE-2018-6560 – flatpak: sandbox escape in D-Bus filtering by a crafted authentication handshake

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2018-6560

In dbus-proxy/flatpak-proxy.c in Flatpak before 0.8.9, and 0.9.x and 0.10.x before 0.10.3, crafted D-Bus messages to the host can be used to break out of the sandbox, because whitespace handling in the proxy is not identical to whitespace handling in the daemon. En dbus-proxy/flatpak-proxy.c en Flatpak en versiones anteriores a la 0.8.9, 0.9.x y 0.10.x anteriores a la 0.10.3, se pueden utilizar mensajes D-Bus manipulados para salir del sandbox, ya que la gestión de los espacios en blanco en el proxy no es idéntica a cómo gestiona el demonio los espacios en blanco. It was found that flatpak's D-Bus proxy did not properly filter the access to D-Bus during the authentication protocol. A specially crafted flatpak application could use this flaw to bypass all restrictions imposed by flatpak and have full access to the D-BUS interface. • https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2766 https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/commit/52346bf187b5a7f1c0fe9075b328b7ad6abe78f6 https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/releases/tag/0.10.3 https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/releases/tag/0.8.9 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2018-6560 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1542207 • CWE-270: Privilege Context Switching Error CWE-436: Interpretation Conflict •
