Security Vulnerability in the TCP Implementation of Solaris Systems May Allow a Denial of Service When Accepting New Connections While Undergoing a TCP "SYN Flood" Attack
1. Impact
A security vulnerability in the TCP implementation of Solaris 8, 9 and 10 may allow a remote unprivileged user to cause a Solaris system which is undergoing a "TCP SYN" flood condition to be slow to accept new network connections. Such network connections may time out without establishing a connection. This would lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) to the network services provided by that system. In addition, a uniprocessor system may also experience overall slowdown due to high CPU usage, resulting in a Denial of Service to the system as a whole.
2. Contributing Factors
This issue can occur in the following releases:
SPARC Platform
Solaris 8 without patch 116965-33
Solaris 9 without patch 114344-35
Solaris 10 without patch 119998-01
x86 Platform
Solaris 8 without patch 116966-32
Solaris 9 without patch 119435-23
Solaris 10 without patch 119999-01
Note: This issue affects hosts which have a value for the ndd(1M) tunable 'tcp_conn_req_max_q0' which is considerably higher than the default value of 1024. The higher the value, the greater the impact of this issue if it is exploited on a host. While a value close to or less than 1024 does not make the system immune to a Denial of Service, it decreases the impact of a DoS on the system.
To determine the value of the 'tcp_conn_req_max_q0' tunable, the following command can be used:
$ ndd -get /dev/tcp tcp_conn_req_max_q0
1024
3. Symptoms
If this issue is exploited, the following message may be seen on the console:
WARNING: High TCP connect timeout rate!
System (port <port number>) may be under a SYN flood attack
4. Workaround
To work around the described issue, make sure the value of the ndd(1M) tunable 'tcp_conn_req_max_q0' for TCP is not much higher than the default of 1024, using commands such as the following:
$ ndd -get /dev/tcp tcp_conn_req_max_q0
4000
$ ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_conn_req_max_q0 1024
$ ndd -get /dev/tcp tcp_conn_req_max_q0
1024
5. Resolution
This issue is addressed in the following releases:
SPARC Platform
Solaris 8 with patch116965-33 or later
Solaris 9 with patch 114344-35 or later
Solaris 10 with patch 119998-01 or later
x86 Platform
Solaris 8 with patch 116966-32 or later
Solaris 9 with patch 119435-23 or later
Solaris 10 with patch 119999-01 or later
Note: There are additional Solaris 8 and 9 patches which list 6402737 in their README, however these patches are not required to address the issue described in this Sun Alert. These additional patches deliver an updated kernel debugger (kadb(1M)). The patch-IDs are:
SPARC Platform
Solaris 8 patch 117350-54 or later
Solaris 9 patch 122300-25 or later
x86 Platform
Solaris 8 patch 117351-54 or later
Solaris 9 patch 122301-25 or later
