Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Insufficient verification of data authenticity

EUVDB-ID: #VU71398

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 8.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23491

CWE-ID: CWE-345 - Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass certificate validation checks.

The vulnerability exists due to presence of the TrustCor certificate in the Root Certificates list. the certificate is removed due to TrustCor's ownership also operated a business that produced spyware. Therefore, any checks that rely on digital signatures of trusted certificates were compromised.

Mitigation

Update the affected package mozilla-nss to the latest version.

2) Stack-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU68967

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 4.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3479

CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the NSS_GetClientAuthData() function in /lib/ssl/authcert.c when accessing gnutls server without a user certificate in the database. A remote attacker can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and crash the application using the affected library.

Mitigation

Update the affected package mozilla-nss to the latest version.
