Description

This security bulletin contains information about 19 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4527)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the getaddrinfo() function called with the AF_UNSPEC address family. A remote attacker with control over DNS server can send a DNS response via TCP larger than 2048 bytes, trigger an out-of-bounds read and crash the application or gain access to potentially sensitive information.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that system is configured with no-aaaa mode via /etc/resolv.conf.




2) Cleartext transmission of sensitive information (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-40217)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in ssl.SSLSocket implementation when handling TLS client authentication. A remote attacker can trick the application to send data unencrypted.


3) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-30630)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly impose security restrictions when executing the command with the "--dump-bin" option. A local user can overwrite arbitrary files on the system and escalate privileges.


4) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-29491)

The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing malformed data in a terminfo database file. A local user can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.



5) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-22081)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the JSSE component in Oracle GraalVM for JDK. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to perform service disruption.


6) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-22067)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the CORBA component in Oracle Java SE. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.


7) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4911)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variable. A local user can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

8) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4813)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the gaih_inet() function when the getaddrinfo() function is called and the hosts database in /etc/nsswitch.conf is configured with SUCCESS=continue or SUCCESS=merge. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.



9) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4806)

The vulnerability allows an attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the getaddrinfo() function. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.



10) Incorrect authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3899)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect authorization caused by D-Bus interface com.redhat.RHSM1 that exposes a significant number of methods to all users. A local user can abuse the com.redhat.RHSM1.Config.SetAll() method to change the state of the registration and escalate privileges on the system.


11) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39325)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to excessive consumption of internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests. A remote attacker can bypass the http2.Server.MaxConcurrentStreams setting by creating new connections while the current connections are still being processed, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


12) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3341)

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 handling control channel messages . A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


13) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0804)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the tiffcrop() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds write and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

14) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0803)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the tiffcrop() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds write and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


15) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0802)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the tiffcrop() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

16) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0801)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the tiffcrop() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

17) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0800)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the tiffcrop() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

18) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40433)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in within the ciMethodBlocks::make_block_at() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


19) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44487)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improperly control of consumption for internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests with compressed HEADERS frames. A remote attacker can send a sequence of compressed HEADERS frames followed by RST_STREAM frames and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack, a.k.a. "Rapid Reset".

Note, the vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild.
