Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-9488)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform man-in-the-middle attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the Apache Log4j SMTP appender does not validate SSL certificates. A remote attacker can perform a MitM attack, intercept and decrypt network traffic.
2) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-14895)
The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated user to read and manipulate data.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the System Wide component in Oracle Utilities Framework. A remote authenticated user can exploit this vulnerability to read and manipulate data.
3) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1945)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Ant is using a default temporary directory identified by the Java system property java.io.tmpdir for several tasks and may thus leak sensitive information. The fixcrlf and replaceregexp tasks also copy files from the temporary directory back into the build tree allowing an attacker to inject modified source files into the build process. A local user with access to the system can view contents of files and directories or modify them.
4) Exposed dangerous method or function (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-10683)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to abuse implemented functionality.
The vulnerability exists due to dom4j allows by default external DTDs and External Entities. A remote attacker can abuse this functionality and perform XXE attack against application that uses dom4j default configuration.
5) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10173)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data passed in XML or JSON formats within the xstream API. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
