Description
This security bulletin contains information about 12 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Overly permissive cross-domain whitelist (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1996)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass the CORS protection mechanism.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect processing of the "Origin" HTTP header that is supplied within HTTP request. A remote attacker can supply arbitrary value via the "Origin" HTTP header, bypass implemented CORS protection mechanism and perform cross-site scripting attacks against the vulnerable application.
2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-45485)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in the IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel. A remote attacker can gain access to sensitive information.
3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-45486)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect implementation of the IPv4 protocol in the Linux kernel. A remote attacker can disclose internal state in some situations.
4) Double Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2588)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The
vulnerability exists due to a double free error within the network packet scheduler implementation
in the route4_change() function in Linux kernel when removing all references to a route filter
before freeing it. A local user can run a specially crafted program to
crash the kernel or execute arbitrary code.
5) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3515)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the CRL parser in libksba. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
6) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-21123)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists in Intel processors due to excessive data output when DirectPath I/O (PCI-Passthrough) is utilized. An attacker (both local and remote) with administrative access to a virtual machine that has an attached DirectPath I/O (PCI-Passthrough) device can obtain information stored in physical memory about the hypervisor or other virtual machines that reside on the same host.
7) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-21125)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists in Intel processors due to excessive data output when DirectPath I/O (PCI-Passthrough) is utilized. An attacker (both local and remote) with administrative access to a virtual machine that has an attached DirectPath I/O (PCI-Passthrough) device can obtain information stored in physical memory about the hypervisor or other virtual machines that reside on the same host.
8) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-21166)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists in Intel processors due to excessive data output when DirectPath I/O (PCI-Passthrough) is utilized. An attacker (both local and remote) with administrative access to a virtual machine that has an attached DirectPath I/O (PCI-Passthrough) device can obtain information stored in physical memory about the hypervisor or other virtual machines that reside on the same host.
9) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-38177)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak in the DNSSEC verification code for the ECDSA algorithm. A remote attacker can spoof the target resolver with responses that have a malformed ECDSA signature and perform denial of service attack.
10) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-38178)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak in the DNSSEC verification code for the EdDSA algorithm. A remote attacker can spoof the target resolver with responses that have a malformed EdDSA signature and perform denial of service attack.
11) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40674)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in the doContent() function in xmlparse.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application that is using the affected library, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
12) Improper Authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41974)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrectly implemented authorization process within multipathd daemon. A local unprivileged user can bypass build-in authorization and execute privileged commands on the system.
