Subject: wicd: Local privilege escalation
Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2012 17:27:10 +0200
Package: wicd
Severity: critical
Tags: security
Justification: root security hole

It was discovered, wicd in any version supported by Debian (i.e. stable,
testing and unstable) yields to local privilege escalation by injecting
arbitrary code through the DBus interface due to incomplete input
sanitation.

I've briefly verified offending code against the Squeeze and Sid version
of the package but I didn't try to reproduce the steps to exploit wicd.
As far as I know there is no upstream fix available.


Details can be found on [1] or via Full Disclosure post [2].

JFTR: it would've been MUCH nicer if the student who found this bug contacted
me, as wicd upstream, beforehand. Now I must rush not to make all boxes out
there running wicd rootable. Nice.

Thanks very much for your report Arno, will take all the necessary steps to
fix it.

I did try the steps, or a variation on them, and confirmed that the package
is exploitable. Patch attached, which is basically a reformat of the
researcher's patch and verified to mitigate the problem.

I already committed a fix to the upstream repository, which fixes the same bug
with wired networks too.

  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~wicd-devel/wicd/experimental/revision/751

I'm releasing 1.7.2 right now, please have some patience.

I think this should be handled via Debian Security Advisory procedure.
It's a root compromise after all (local but still important imho).
