Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.

1) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU18797

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11703

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the iCal implementation in parser_get_next_char function in icalparser.c. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted email, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

2) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU18798

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11704

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the iCal implementation in icalmemory_strdup_and_dequote function in icalvalue.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted email, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

3) Stack-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU18799

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11705

CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within iCal implementation in icalrecur_add_bydayrules function in icalrecur.c. A remote unauthenticated attacker can create a specially crafted email, trigger stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

4) Type Confusion

EUVDB-ID: #VU18800

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 3.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11706

CWE-ID: CWE-843 - Type confusion

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error within the iCal implementation in icaltimezone_get_vtimezone_properties function in icalproperty.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted email with malformed timezone data, trigger a type confusion error and crash the application.


Mitigation

Update the affected packages.
