Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.

1) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU20964

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

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

Install updates from vendor's website.

2) Resource management error

EUVDB-ID: #VU27545

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-20485

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources with the qemu/qemu_driver.c in libvirt while holding of a monitor job during a query to a guest agent, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (API blockage).

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

3) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU27389

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1983

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error when processing packets within the ip_reass() function in ip_input.c in libslirp. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to the application, trigger a use-after-free error and crash it.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

4) Resource management error

EUVDB-ID: #VU28191

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 2.4 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-10703

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources with the application when performing pool lookups within the storagePoolLookupByTargetPath() function in storage/storage_driver.c. A remote user can create a pool with empty target path and then perform  search for an empty target, which results in libvirt crash.

Mitigation
