id: CVE-2024-3094 info: name: XZ - Embedded Malicious Code author: pdteam severity: critical description: | Malicious code was discovered in the upstream tarballs of xz, starting with version 5.6.0. Through a series of complex obfuscations, the liblzma build process extracts a prebuilt object file from a disguised test file existing in the source code, which is then used to modify specific functions in the liblzma code. This results in a modified liblzma library that can be used by any software linked against this library, intercepting and modifying the data interaction with this library. reference: - https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/03/29/4 - https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-3094 - https://arstechnica.com/security/2024/03/backdoor-found-in-widely-used-linux-utility-breaks-encrypted-ssh-connections/ - https://aws.amazon.com/security/security-bulletins/AWS-2024-002/ - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2272210 classification: cvss-metrics: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H cvss-score: 10 cve-id: CVE-2024-3094 cwe-id: CWE-506 epss-score: 0.00079 epss-percentile: 0.32887 cpe: cpe:2.3:a:tukaani:xz:5.6.0:*:*:*:*:*:*:* metadata: verified: true vendor: tukaani product: xz tags: cve,cve2024,local,code,xz,backdoor self-contained: true code: - engine: - sh - bash source: | # find path to liblzma used by sshd path="$(ldd $(which sshd) | grep liblzma | grep -o '/[^ ]*')" # does it even exist? if [ "$path" == "" ] then echo probably not vulnerable exit fi # check for function signature if hexdump -ve '1/1 "%.2x"' "$path" | grep -q f30f1efa554889f54c89ce5389fb81e7000000804883ec28488954241848894c2410 then echo probably vulnerable else echo probably not vulnerable fi matchers: - type: word words: - "probably vulnerable" extractors: - type: dsl dsl: - response # digest: 4b0a00483046022100ac6864410c93e586885b4473cebffd245bb5c0448e7ece0ab162f92f0ecfe4f302210092315c5373e9393c838e7b5e78d7dbc755ccaf673efdb536ec799630299352e3:922c64590222798bb761d5b6d8e72950
