CVE-2016-5374 Missing SMB Authorization Check Vulnerability in ONTAP 9

circle-check-alt This advisory should be considered the single source of current, up-to-date, authorized and accurate information from NetApp regarding Full Support products and versions.

The email subscription feature has been temporarily disabled.

Summary

The owner_rights ACL is not correctly enforced in ONTAP versions 9.0 through 9.1 and therefore may allow the owner of SMB hosted data to share it in an unauthorized manner.

Impact

ONTAP 9.0 and 9.1 do not prevent the owner of SMB hosted data from modifying the ACL when the owner_rights ACL entry is present, thus defeating any previously configured security configuration.
