This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.

1) Double Free

EUVDB-ID: #VU68748

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42915

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing non-200 proxy HTTP responses for the following schemes: dict, gopher, gophers, ldap, ldaps, rtmp, rtmps, telnet. A remote attacker can trigger a double free error by forcing the application into connecting to resources that are not allowed by the configured proxy.


Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

4) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU71532

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24493

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to inject and execute arbitrary formulas.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote user can leverage the reporting system to export reports containing formulas, which would then require a victim to approve and execute on a host.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

5) Stored cross-site scripting

EUVDB-ID: #VU71533

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24494

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote user can permanently inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.
