Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22954)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and perform server-side template injection.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


2) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22957)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data passed via the JDBC URI. A remote administrator can pass specially crafted data via the JDBC URI and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


3) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22958)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data passed via the JDBC URI. A remote administrator can pass specially crafted data via the JDBC URI and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


4) Cross-site request forgery (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22959)

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 and unintentionally validate a malicious JDBC URI.


5) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22960)

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

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect default permissions for support scripts. A local user with access to the system can overwrite files and execute arbitrary code with root privileges.


6) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22961)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote attacker can obtain hostname of the target system.
