OpenBSD OpenSSH 1.2.2/1.2.3/2.1/2.1.1 CRC32 integer coercion

CVSS Meta Temp Score
CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.
Current Exploit Price (≈)
Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.
CTI Interest Score
Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in OpenBSD OpenSSH 1.2.2/1.2.3/2.1/2.1.1 (Connectivity Software) and classified as critical. This issue affects some unknown processing of the component CRC32 Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a integer coercion vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-192. Integer coercion refers to a set of flaws pertaining to the type casting, extension, or truncation of primitive data types. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

CORE SDI SSH1 CRC-32 compensation attack detector allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on an SSH server or client via an integer overflow.

The weakness was disclosed 03/12/2001 by Michal Zalewski with BindView as confirmed advisory (CERT.org). It is possible to read the advisory at cert.org. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2001-0144. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. Technical details are unknown but a public exploit is available.

The exploit is available at securityfocus.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept. We expect the 0-day to have been worth approximately $25k-$100k. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 14923 (Debian DSA-086-1 : ssh-nonfree - remote root exploit), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Debian Local Security Checks and running in the context l.

Upgrading eliminates this vulnerability. A possible mitigation has been published 9 months after the disclosure of the vulnerability. Attack attempts may be identified with Snort ID 1324. Furthermore it is possible to detect and prevent this kind of attack with TippingPoint and the filter 279.
