Description
This security bulletin contains information about 10 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: N/A)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote user can obtain the internal load balancer IP address.
2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: N/A)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote user can gain unauthorized access to privileged information.
3) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-34169)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to an integer truncation issue when processing malicious XSLT stylesheets. A remote non-authenticated attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application to corrupt Java class files generated by the internal XSLTC compiler and execute arbitrary Java bytecode.
4) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31197)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within the java.sql.ResultRow.refreshRow() method when processing column names. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database using the statement terminator, e.g." ;".
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.
5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-36374)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when processing ZIP archives. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1945)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Ant is using a default temporary directory identified by the Java system property java.io.tmpdir for several tasks and may thus leak sensitive information. The fixcrlf and replaceregexp tasks also copy files from the temporary directory back into the build tree allowing an attacker to inject modified source files into the build process. A local user with access to the system can view contents of files and directories or modify them.
7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-36373)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when processing TAR archives. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2012-2098)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to algorithmic complexity in the sorting algorithms in bzip2 compressing stream (BZip2CompressorOutputStream). A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
9) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-11979)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect patch for vulnerability #VU27924 (CVE-2020-1945). Apache Ant 1.10.8 changed the permissions of temporary files it created so that only the current user was allowed to access them. Unfortunately the fixcrlf task deleted the temporary file and created a new one without said protection, effectively nullifying the effort. This would still allow an attacker to inject modified source files into the build process.
10) Information exposure through externally-generated error message (CVE-ID: N/A)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application while processing an HTTP request with an authorization header that contains invalid characters for base64 formatting. A remote attacker can view a stack trace message.
