Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Cryptographic issues
EUVDB-ID: #VU47253
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7069
CWE-ID:
CWE-310 - Cryptographic Issues
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to the openssl_encrypt() function generates a wrong ciphertext and a wrong tag for AES-CCM for a 12 bytes IV. As a result, a 7-byte nonce is used instead of 12 bytes. A remote attacker can abuse such behavior and decrypt data.
Update the affected packages.
Opensuse: 15.1

2) Input validation error
EUVDB-ID: #VU47252
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7070
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a spoofing attack.
The vulnerability exists in the way PHP parser handles cookies with percent character (e.g. '%'). A remote attacker can send a crafted HTTP request with a `__%48ost-` or `__%53ecure-` cookie that will be processed before other cookies sent in the same request. As a result, an attacker can set malicious `__Host-` cookie on a subdomain and bypass origin restrictions, imposed by browsers.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to perform a spoofing attack.
Update the affected packages.
