Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Extras update for slirp4netns

1) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU20446

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 5.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-14378

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

Exploit availability: No

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 ip_reass() function in ip_input.c in libslirp. A remote authenticated attacker can send a large packet, 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

Install updates from vendor's website.

2) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU20964

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-15890

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists in "ip_reass()" routine in "ip_input.c" file while reassembling incoming packets, if the first fragment is bigger than the m->m_dat[] buffer. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet and cause the application to crash.

Mitigation

4) Buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU25456

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 5.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8608

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within tcp_subr.c file in libslirp. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application that is using the affected version of library, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the system.
