{"id":"CVE-2022-3592","details":"A symlink following vulnerability was found in Samba, where a user can create a symbolic link that will make 'smbd' escape the configured share path. This flaw allows a remote user with access to the exported part of the file system under a share via SMB1 unix extensions or NFS to create symlinks to files outside the 'smbd' configured share path and gain access to another restricted server's filesystem.","modified":"2026-03-17T23:58:03.777562Z","published":"2023-01-12T15:15:10.273Z","related":["MGASA-2023-0010","openSUSE-SU-2024:12454-1"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2022-3592"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202309-06"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2022-3592.html"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2137776"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/samba-team/samba","events":[{"introduced":"fbec737d9d3d992b54f52defcba62a304efef8f7"},{"fixed":"21f995104c870cdfbdb0db61e290b2da8bc87ee1"}],"database_specific":{"versions":[{"introduced":"4.17.0"},{"fixed":"4.17.2"}]}}],"versions":["samba-4.17.0","samba-4.17.1"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2022-3592.json","unresolved_ranges":[{"events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"36"}]},{"events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"37"}]}]}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"}]}
