Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Protection mechanism failure (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10086)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass certain security restrictions.

The vulnerability exist due to Beanutils is not using by default the a special BeanIntrospector class in PropertyUtilsBean that was supposed to suppress the ability for an attacker to access the classloader via the class property available on all Java objects. A remote attacker can abuse such application behavior against applications that were developed to rely on this security feature.


2) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-25649)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to modify information on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and modify information on the system.


3) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-11979)

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

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect patch for vulnerability #VU27924 (CVE-2020-1945). Apache Ant 1.10.8 changed the permissions of temporary files it created so that only the current user was allowed to access them. Unfortunately the fixcrlf task deleted the temporary file and created a new one without said protection, effectively nullifying the effort. This would still allow an attacker to inject modified source files into the build process.


4) Comparison using wrong factors (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-28052)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to brute-force password hashes.

The vulnerability exists due to comparison error in OpenBSDBCrypt.checkPassword() function in core/src/main/java/org/bouncycastle/crypto/generators/OpenBSDBCrypt.java when matching passwords with hashes. A remote attacker can pass an incorrect password that will be accepted as a valid one by the library, bypass authentication process and gain unauthorized access to the application that uses vulnerable version of Bouncy Castle.


5) Cross-site request forgery (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-17495)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site request forgery attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of the HTTP request origin. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted web page and perform arbitrary actions on behalf of the victim on the vulnerable website.
