Description
This security bulletin contains information about 12 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Inadequate Encryption Strength (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0361)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in the TLS RSA key exchange. A remote attacker can perform Bleichenbacher oracle attack and decrypt information.
2) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1127)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a divide by zero error within the scrolldown() function in move.c. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file and crash the editor.
3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27538)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to the way libcurl handles previously used connections in a connection pool for subsequent transfers. Several SSH settings were left out from the configuration match checks, resulting in erroneous matches for different resources. As a result, libcurl can send authentication string from one resource to another, exposing credentials to a third-party.4) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27561)
The vulnerability allows a local user to compromise the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions in the libcontainer/rootfs_linux.go. A local user can gain elevated privileges on the target system.
5) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24998)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons FileUpload does not limit the number of request parts. A remote attacker can initiate a series of uploads and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1370)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to uncontrolled recursion when processing nested arrays and objects. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted JSON data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1436)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to uncontrolled recursion when constructing a JSONArray from a Collection that contains a self-reference in one of its elements. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1471)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data within the SnakeYaml's Constructor() class. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted yaml content to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
9) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41725)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper control over internal resources in net/http and mime/multipart. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
10) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0464)
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 verifying X.509 certificate chains that include policy constraints. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted certificate to trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
11) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28155)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.
12) Uncaught Exception (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-31125)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform denial of service attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to an uncaught exception. A remote user can send specially crafted HTTP request to trigger the vulnerability and perform denial of service attacks.
