Descriptions

A flaw was found in Samba. The KDC accepts kpasswd requests encrypted with any key known to it. By encrypting forged kpasswd requests with its own key, a user can change other users' passwords, enabling full domain takeover.

Se ha encontrado un fallo en Samba. El KDC acepta solicitudes kpasswd cifradas con cualquier clave que conozca. Al cifrar las solicitudes kpasswd falsificadas con su propia clave, un usuario puede cambiar las contraseñas de otros usuarios, permitiendo una toma de control total del dominio.

It was discovered that Samba did not handle MaxQueryDuration when being used in AD DC configurations, contrary to expectations. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Luke Howard discovered that Samba incorrectly handled certain restrictions associated with changing passwords. A remote attacker being requested to change passwords could possibly use this issue to escalate privileges.
