61bc44ce-9f5a-11ea-aff3-f8b156c2bfe9sympa - Security flaws in setuid wrappers

A vulnerability has been discovered in Sympa web interface by which attacker can execute arbitrary code with root privileges. Sympa uses two sorts of setuid wrappers:

  • FastCGI wrappers
  • newaliases wrapper

The FastCGI wrappers wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi and sympa_soap_server-wrapper.fcgi were used to make the web interface running under privileges of a dedicated user.

The newaliases wrapper (sympa_newaliases-wrapper) allows Sympa to update the alias database with root privileges.

Since these setuid wrappers did not clear environment variables, if environment variables like PERL5LIB were injected, forged code might be loaded and executed under privileges of setuid-ed users.

451a6c79-c92b-11e4-a835-000c292ee6b8sympa -- Remote attackers can read arbitrary files

The Sympa Project reports:

The newsletter posting area in the web interface in Sympa 6.0.x before 6.0.10 and 6.1.x before 6.1.24 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.

CVE-2015-1306
9908a1cc-35ad-424d-be0b-7e56abd5931asympa -- Denial of service caused by malformed CSRF token

Javier Moreno discovered a vulnerability in Sympa web interface that can cause denial of service (DoS) attack.

By submitting requests with malformed parameters, this flaw allows to create junk files in Sympa's directory for temporary files. And particularly by tampering token to prevent CSRF, it allows to originate exessive notification messages to listmasters.

CVE-2020-9369
https://sympa-community.github.io/security/2020-001.html
31a7ffb1-a80a-11eb-b159-f8b156c2bfe9sympa -- Inappropriate use of the cookie parameter can be a security threat. This parameter may also not provide sufficient security.

Earlier versions of Sympa require a parameter named cookie in sympa.conf configuration file.

This parameter was used to make some identifiers generated by the system unpredictable. For example, it was used as following:

  • To be used as a salt to encrypt passwords stored in the database by the RC4 symmetric key algorithm.

    Note that RC4 is no longer considered secure enough and is not supported in the current version of Sympa.

  • To prevent attackers from sending crafted messages to achieve XSS and so on in message archives.

There were the following problems with the use of this parameter.

  1. This parameter, for its purpose, should be different for each installation, and once set, it cannot be changed. As a result, some sites have been operating without setting this parameter. This completely invalidates the security measures described above.
  2. Even if this parameter is properly set, it may be considered not being strong enough against brute force attacks.
