SA126 : OpenSSH Vulnerabilities January/April 2016
SUMMARY
Blue Coat products that include a vulnerable version of OpenSSH are susceptible to two vulnerabilities. A malicious user with local shell access can escalate their privileges and execute arbitrary code with root privileges. A remote attacker acting as an SSH server can establish trusted X11 connections to take screenshots and inject mouse movements and keypresses on an SSH client host.

ISSUES
| CVE-2015-8325 | |
|---|---|
| Severity / CVSSv2 | High / 7.2 (AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C) |
| References | SecurityFocus: BID 86187 / NVD: CVE-2015-8325 |
| Impact | Privilege escalation |
| Description | A flaw in the SSH server implementation allows a local, non-root user with shell access to execute arbitrary code with root privileges. The vulnerability is only exploitable when the SSH server accepts user-provided environment variables and uses the 'login' tool to authenticate users. |
| CVE-2016-1908 | |
|---|---|
| Severity / CVSSv2 | High / 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P) |
| References | SecurityFocus: BID 84427 / NVD: CVE-2016-1908 |
| Impact | Information disclosure, code execution |
| Description | A flaw in the SSH client implementation allows a remote attacker acting as a malicious SSH server to establish a trusted X11 connection with the SSH client when the client has requested only an untrusted connection. The trusted X11 connection allows the attacker to take screenshots and inject mouse movements and keypresses on the SSH client host. |
MITIGATION
By default, Director, MAA, ICSP, NNP, and NSP do not use the 'login' tool for user authentication and do not use PAM to read user-provided environment variables. Customers who leave this default behavior unchanged prevent attacks against these products using CVE-2015-8325.
By default, Security Analytics does not use the 'login' tool for user authentication. Customers who leave this default behavior unchanged prevent attacks against Security Analytics using CVE-2015-8325.
