Netatalk is an open-source Apple File Protocol fileserver that was being used by Western Digital products to access network shares and perform Time Machine backups. Multiple critical vulnerabilities have been discovered in Netatalk. Because Netatalk is unmaintained, we have removed Netatalk from our firmware released on January 10, 2022. Users can continue to access local network shares and perform Time Machine backup via SMB. For additional information, please refer to this KBA.
To take advantage of the latest security fixes, Western Digital recommends that users promptly update their devices to the latest firmware by clicking on the firmware update notification.
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered within the ad_addcomment function that could lead to an unauthenticated remote code execution. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer.
CVE Number: CVE-2022-0194
Reported By: Theori (@theori_io) working with Trend Micro’s Zero Day Initiative
An improper handling of exceptional conditions issue was found in the parse_entries function that did not properly handle parsing AppleDouble entries. This vulnerability could allow a remote attacker to carry out an unauthenticated remote command execution on affected versions of Netatalk.

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered within the setfilparams function that could lead to an unauthenticated remote code execution. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer.
CVE Number: CVE-2022-23122
Reported By: Orange Tsai (@orange_8361) from DEVCORE Research Team working with Trend Micro’s Zero Day Initiative
An out-of-bounds read information disclosure vulnerability was discovered in the getdirparams method that could allow an attacker to disclose sensitive information or carry out an unauthenticated remote code execution on the device. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer.
CVE Number: CVE-2022-23123

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered within the copyapplfile function that could lead to an unauthenticated remote code execution. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer.
CVE Number: CVE-2022-23125
Reported By: Theori (@theori_io) working with Trend Micro’s Zero Day Initiative
The combination of primitives offered by SMB and AFP in their default configuration allows the arbitrary writing of files. By exploiting these combination of primitives, an attacker can execute arbitrary code.
