Solaris rpc.mountd generates error messages that allow a remote attacker to determine what files are on the server.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This legacy Solaris issue lets a remote attacker learn whether files exist on a server by reading rpc.mountd error messages. The source bundle does not provide CVSS, affected versions, patch details, or confirmed exploitation. Exposure is most likely on legacy Solaris systems running rpc.mountd or NFS-related services, especially where those services are reachable from untrusted networks. The bundle does not identify affected Solaris versions. Handle as a legacy exposure management item unless internet-facing Solaris rpc.mountd is found. Business urgency rises for sensitive servers because file discovery can support further intrusion planning. Mitigation focus: Check Sun advisory 00168 and current Oracle Solaris guidance for supported remediation.; Inventory Solaris hosts running rpc.mountd or NFS services.; Restrict untrusted network access to rpc.mountd/NFS while remediation is confirmed..
