Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.

1) Infinite loop

EUVDB-ID: #VU12842

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2017-12626

CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists due to infinite loops while parsing specially crafted WMF, EMF, MSG and macros and out of Memory exceptions while parsing specially crafted DOC, PPT and XLS. A remote attacker can cause the service to crash.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

3) Privilege escalation

EUVDB-ID: #VU18110

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-0211

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists within MPM implementation due to the application does not properly maintain each child's listener bucket number in the scoreboard that may lead to unprivileged code or scripts run by server (e.g. via mod_php) to modify the scoreboard and abuse the privileged main process.

A local user can execute arbitrary code on the system with privileges of the Apache HTTP Server code process.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

CPE2.3

External links

https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuoct2019.html?504242

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.

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.

4) OS Command Injection

EUVDB-ID: #VU18236

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 7.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-0232

CWE-ID: CWE-78 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to an input validation error within the CGI Servlet when passing arguments from JRE to the Windows environment. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the CGI Servlet, inject and execute arbitrary OS commands on the system with Apache Tomcat privileges.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that Apache Tomcat is installed on Windows operating system with enabled option “enableCmdLineArguments” (CGI Servlet and “enableCmdLineArguments” option are disabled by default).

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
