CVE-2013-4090: ACL bug in all versions of Varnish HTTP cache
=============================================================
Two bugs have been found in the code which compiles VCL ACLs into C code.
TL;DR
- -----
In certain cases an ACL entry will match *less* than it should.
If you use ACLs to *deny* access, some IP numbers which should
have been denied, might slip through.
Impact
- ------
These bugs only affect non-class CIDR ACL entries (ie: /xx except
/8, /16, /24 ...) when more specific ACL entries are also present.
The impact can best be explained with two examples:
acl foo {
"127.0.0.2";
"127.0.0.0"/19;
}
When the CIDR split byte matches a more specific entry, the CIDR
mask is rounded up to a byte boundary so the .../19 becomes .../24
instead, with the result that:
127.0.0.2 matches
127.0.0.1 matches
127.0.1.0 does not match
If however, the CIDR split byte does not match the more specific
entry:
acl foo {
"127.0.0.2";
"127.0.1.0"/19;
}
the CIDR entry will be ignored where the split byte matches the
tested IP number, so that:
127.0.0.2 matches
127.0.0.1 does not match
127.0.1.0 matches
The overall effect is always that the ACL matches less than it should.
It does not matter which byte is split by a CIDR mask.
IPv4 and IPv6 are equally impacted.
If you use the ACL to *deny* access, either by having '!' prefixes
in front of ACL entries or by the way the ACL is used, some IPs
may not be denied which should be.
Fixes
- -----
These bugs will be fixed in the Varnish 3.0.4 and subsequent releases.
Varnish 3.0.4 is due to be released this week.
For older versions of Varnish, apply the patch below.
Patch
- -----
Be aware that this patch may have white-space mangled so it might not
apply automatically, but it is simple enough to apply by hand.
