5) Integer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU53021

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 4.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-31808

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when delivering responses from HTTP Range requests. A remote proxy client can send specially crafted HTTP request via the proxy server, force the server to initiate a necessary response, trigger integer overflow in Squid and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-28662

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing HTTP responses.

8) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU53017

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 4.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-28651

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when resolving "urn:" resource identifiers.
