Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22950)

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

The vulnerability exists due improper input validation when processing SpEL expressions. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the affected application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-0778)

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

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop within the BN_mod_sqrt() function when processing an ASN.1 certificate that contains elliptic curve public keys in compressed form or explicit elliptic curve parameters with a base point encoded in compressed form. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted certificate to the TLS server or client, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


3) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-42550)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote user can send a specially crafted request to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system by tricking the application to load a malicious configuration from a remote LDAP server.

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


4) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23181)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a time of check, time of use flaw when configured to persist sessions using the FileStore. A local user can perform certain actions which lead to security restrictions bypass and privilege escalation (code execution with Tomcat process privileges).
