Summary
ClamAV HFS+ Partition Scanning Buffer Overflow Vulnerability Affecting Cisco Products: February 2023
Notes
Summary
On Feb 15, 2023, the following vulnerability in the ClamAV scanning library was disclosed:
A vulnerability in the HFS+ partition file parser of ClamAV versions 1.0.0 and earlier, 0.105.1 and earlier, and 0.103.7 and earlier could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
This vulnerability is due to a missing buffer size check that may result in a heap buffer overflow write. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by submitting a crafted HFS+ partition file to be scanned by ClamAV on an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the ClamAV scanning process, or else crash the process, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition.
For a description of this vulnerability, see the ClamAV blog ["https://blog.clamav.net/2023/02/clamav-01038-01052-and-101-patch.html"].
Notes:
The Security Impact Rating (SIR) for this vulnerability is Critical only for Windows-based platforms because those platforms run the ClamAV scanning process in a privileged security context. The platforms that are critically impacted include Cisco Secure Endpoint Connector for Windows.
The SIR for this vulnerability is Medium on other platforms, including Linux and Mac platforms, because those platforms run the ClamAV scanning process in a lower-privileged security context. The affected platforms include Cisco Secure Web Appliance and Secure Endpoint Connector for Linux and Mac.
Cisco Secure Endpoint Private Cloud itself is not impacted by this vulnerability. However, the Secure Endpoint Connector software that is distributed from the device is impacted.
Affected Products
Cisco investigated its product line to determine which products may be affected by this vulnerability.
The Vulnerable Products ["#vp"] section includes Cisco bug IDs for each affected product. The bugs are accessible through the Cisco Bug Search Tool ["https://bst.cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/BUGID"] and contain additional platform-specific information, including workarounds (if available) and fixed software releases.
Any product not listed in the Vulnerable Products section of this advisory is to be considered not vulnerable.
Vulnerable Products
The following table lists Cisco products that are affected by the vulnerability that is described in this advisory. If a future release date is indicated for software, the date provided represents an estimate based on all information known to Cisco as of the Last Updated date at the top of the advisory. Availability dates are subject to change based on a number of factors, including satisfactory testing results and delivery of other priority features and fixes.
