Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-202112-5
=========================================
Severity: Medium
Date : 2021-12-03
CVE-ID : CVE-2021-3657 CVE-2021-44143
Package : isync
Type : arbitrary code execution
Remote : Yes
Link : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-2579
Summary
=======
The package isync before version 1.4.4-1 is vulnerable to arbitrary
code execution.
Resolution
==========
Upgrade to 1.4.4-1.
# pacman -Syu "isync>=1.4.4-1"
The problems have been fixed upstream in version 1.4.4.
Workaround
==========
None.
Description
===========
- CVE-2021-3657 (arbitrary code execution)
A security issue was found in mbsync in isync versions before 1.4.4.
Due to inadequate handling of extremely large (>=2GiB) IMAP literals,
malicious or compromised IMAP servers, and hypothetically even external
email senders, could cause several different buffer overflows, which
could conceivably be exploited for remote code execution.
- CVE-2021-44143 (arbitrary code execution)
A security issue was found in mbsync in isync 1.4.0 before version
1.4.4. Due to an unchecked condition, a malicious or compromised IMAP
server could use a crafted mail message that lacks headers (i.e., one
that starts with an empty line) to provoke a heap overflow, which could
conceivably be exploited for remote code execution.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code on the mbsync client
through crafted email messages.
