Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.

1) Information disclosure

EUVDB-ID: #VU54229

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-34548

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Information exposure

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect processing of user-supplied data. A remote attacker can spoof RELAY_END or RELAY_RESOLVED cell on half-closed streams, which would allow a relay on a circuit to end a stream that wasn't actually built with it.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.

Vulnerable software versions

Fedora: 34

tor: before 0.4.5.9-1.fc34

CPE2.3 External links

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-1b60c984e5


Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

2) Resource management error

EUVDB-ID: #VU54230

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-34549

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 within the naive unkeyed hash function. A remote attacker can construct circuits with chosen circuit IDs, to create collisions and make the hash table inefficient, resulting in denial of service condition.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
