Description

This security bulletin contains information about 23 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0172)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in firmware. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0072)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in firmware. A local administrator can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0183)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of specified index, position, or offset in Input in software. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0179)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper use of validation framework in software. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0178)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in software. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0177)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of consistency within input in software. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0176)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in firmware. A local administrator can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


8) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0076)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of specified index, position, or offset in Input in firmware. A local administrator can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


9) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0175)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of specified index, position, or offset in Input in firmware. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0174)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper use of validation framework in firmware. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


11) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0173)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of consistency within input in firmware. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


12) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0171)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions in software. A local user can bypass implemented security restrictions and enable information disclosure.


13) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0162)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in software. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and gain elevated privileges on the target system.


14) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0170)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
