Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error
EUVDB-ID: #VU74181
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-20329
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to manipulate data
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject additional fields into marshalled documents and manipulate data in the database.
Install updates from vendor's website.

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
2) Input validation error
EUVDB-ID: #VU70478
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 4.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4318
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to bypass certain security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when handling newline characters in environment variables. A local user can create a specially crafted environment variable and add entries to a container's /etc/passwd. It is also possible to circumvent admission validation of username/UID by adding such an entry.
MitigationInstall updates from vendor's website.

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
3) Type Confusion
EUVDB-ID: #VU71992
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 7.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0286
CWE-ID:
CWE-843 - Type confusion
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error related to X.400 address processing inside an X.509 GeneralName. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a type confusion error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack or read memory contents.
In most cases, the attack requires the attacker to provide both the certificate chain and CRL, neither of which need to have a valid signature. If the attacker only controls one of these inputs, the other input must already contain an X.400 address as a CRL distribution point, which is uncommon. As such, this vulnerability is most likely to only affect applications which have implemented their own functionality for retrieving CRLs over a network.
