Descriptions

Since the Windows Kerberos RC4-HMAC Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability was disclosed by Microsoft on Nov 8 2022 and per RFC8429 it is assumed that rc4-hmac is weak, Vulnerable Samba Active Directory DCs will issue rc4-hmac encrypted tickets despite the target server supporting better encryption (eg aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96).

Dado que la vulnerabilidad de elevación de privilegios de Windows Kerberos RC4-HMAC fue revelada por Microsoft el 8 de noviembre de 2022 y según RFC8429 se asume que rc4-hmac es débil, los DC de Directorio Activo Samba vulnerables emitirán tickets cifrados rc4-hmac a pesar de que el servidor de destino admita un cifrado mejor (por ejemplo, aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96).

USN-5822-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Samba. The update for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS introduced regressions in certain environments. Pending investigation of these regressions, this update temporarily reverts the security fixes. It was discovered that Samba incorrectly handled the bad password count logic. It was discovered that Samba supported weak RC4/HMAC-MD5 in NetLogon Secure Channel. Greg Hudson discovered that Samba incorrectly handled PAC parsing. Joseph Sutton discovered that Samba could be forced to issue rc4-hmac encrypted Kerberos tickets.
