Multiple vulnerabilities in Multicluster Engine for Kubernetes 2.2

1) State Issues

EUVDB-ID: #VU73829

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27536

CWE-ID: CWE-371 - State Issues

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.

The vulnerability exists due to cURL will reuse a previously created connection even when the GSS delegation (CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION) option had been changed that could have changed the user's permissions in a second transfer. libcurl keeps previously used connections in a connection pool for subsequent transfers to reuse if one of them matches the setup. However, this GSS delegation setting was left out from the configuration match checks, making them match too easily, affecting krb5/kerberos/negotiate/GSSAPI transfers.

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. A remote attacker can cause the amount of memory used by a named resolver to go well beyond the configured max-cache-size limit. The effectiveness of the attack depends on a number of factors (e.g. query load, query patterns), but since the default value of the max-cache-size statement is 90%, in the worst case the attacker can exhaust all available memory on the host running named, leading to a denial-of-service condition.
