Buffer Overflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Stack-based buffer overflow in SMBLogonServer of the rlmsmb experimental module for FreeRADIUS 0.9.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long User-Password attribute.

An FR-GV-202 issue in FreeRADIUS 2.x before 2.2.10 allows "Write overflow in radcoalesce()" - this allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.

CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

A vulnerability was found in FreeRadius. An attacker can reflect the received scalar and element from the server in it's own commit message, and subsequently reflect the confirm value as well. This causes the adversary to successfully authenticate as the victim. Fortunately, the adversary will not posses the negotiated session key, meaning the adversary cannot actually perform any actions as this user.

A vulnerability was found in FreeRadius. An invalid curve attack allows an attacker to authenticate as any user (without knowing the password). The problem is that on the reception of an EAP-PWD Commit frame, FreeRADIUS doesn't verify whether the received elliptic curve point is valid.

Pierre Carrier reported a stack-based buffer overflow flaw in the FreeRADIUS rlmpap module. An authenticated user could trigger this issue by creating a large password, causing FreeRADIUS to crash. The stack protector and SSP variable re-ordering protections should help prevent this issue from being used to execute arbitrary code.

In FreeRADIUS 3.0.x before 3.0.20, the EAP-pwd module used a global OpenSSL BNCTX instance to handle all handshakes. This mean multiple threads use the same BNCTX instance concurrently, resulting in crashes when concurrent EAP-pwd handshakes are initiated. This can be abused by an adversary as a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack.

Null Pointer Dereference
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

In freeradius, when an EAP-SIM supplicant sends an unknown SIM option, the server will try to look that option up in the internal dictionaries. This lookup will fail, but the SIM code will not check for that failure. Instead, it will dereference a NULL pointer, and cause the server to crash.

Race Condition
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

DISPUTED It was discovered freeradius up to and including version 3.0.19 does not correctly configure logrotate, allowing a local attacker who already has control of the radiusd user to escalate his privileges to root, by tricking logrotate into writing a radiusd-writable file to a directory normally inaccessible by the radiusd user. NOTE: the upstream software maintainer has stated "there is simply no way for anyone to gain privileges through this alleged issue."
