Description
This security bulletin contains information about 8 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) HTTP response splitting (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27522)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP splitting attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to software does not correclty process CRLF character sequences in mod_proxy_uwsgi. A remote attacker can send specially crafted request containing CRLF sequence and make the application to send a split HTTP response.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker perform cache poisoning attack.
2) HTTP response splitting (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-37436)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP splitting attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to software does not correctly process CRLF character sequences within the mod_proxy module. A remote attacker can send specially crafted request containing CRLF sequence and make the application to send a split HTTP response.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker perform cache poisoning attack.
3) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-36760)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests in mod_proxy_ajp. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the web server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers to the AJP server it forwards requests to.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.
4) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28615)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the ap_strcmp_match() function when processing an extremely large input buffer. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the web server, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
Note, the code distributed with the Apache HTTP Server cannot be coerced into such a call. The vulnerability can affect third-party modules or lua scripts that use ap_strcmp_match().
5) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28614)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the ap_rwrite() function. A remote attacker can with the ability to force the server to reflect a very large input using ap_rwrite() or ap_rputs() (such as with mod_luas r:puts() function) can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read read unintended memory on the system.
6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2006-20001)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the mod_dav module when handling HTTP requests. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request, trigger a one byte buffer overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) HTTP response splitting (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-25690)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP splitting attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to software does not correclty process CRLF character sequences in mod_rewrite and mod_proxy. A remote attacker can send specially crafted request containing CRLF sequence and make the application to send a split HTTP response.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker perform cache poisoning attack.
8) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31813)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in mod_proxy implementation, where the web server may not send the X-Forwarded-* headers to the origin server based on client side Connection header hop-by-hop mechanism. A remote attacker can bypass IP based authentication on the origin server/application and gain access to otherwise restricted functionality.
