Descriptions

A flaw was found in the way samba client before samba 4.4.16, samba 4.5.14 and samba 4.6.8 used encryption with the max protocol set as SMB3. The connection could lose the requirement for signing and encrypting to any DFS redirects, allowing an attacker to read or alter the contents of the connection via a man-in-the-middle attack.

Se ha encontrado un fallo en la forma en la que el cliente samba en versiones anteriores a samba 4.4.16, samba 4.5.14 y samba 4.6.8 utilizaba cifrado con el protocolo max establecido en SMB3. La conexión podía perder el requisito de firmar y cifrar con cualquier redirección DFS, lo que permitía a un atacante leer o alterar el contenido de la conexión mediante un ataque Man-in-the-Middle (MitM).
