Description
This security bulletin contains information about 9 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Incorrect permission assignment for critical resource (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34042)
The vulnerability allows a local user to compromise the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect permission assignment for spring-security.xsd. A local administrator can write arbitrary file on the system.
2) Improper Authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-41900)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in the revocation process. If a Jetty OpenIdAuthenticator uses the optional nested LoginService, and that LoginService decides to revoke an already authenticated user, then the current request will still treat the user as authenticated.
3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-46120)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to RabbitMQ Java client library allows Java and JVM-based applications to connect to and interact with RabbitMQ nodes. A remote attacker can send a very large Message causing a memory overflow and triggering an OOM Error to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Authorization bypass through user-controlled key (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44981)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authorization process.
The vulnerability exists due to improper implementation of SASL Quorum Peer authentication. The instance part in SASL authentication ID, which is listed in zoo.cfg server
list, is optional and if it's missing,
the authorization check will be skipped. As a
result an arbitrary endpoint could join the cluster and begin
propagating counterfeit changes to the leader, essentially giving it
complete read-write access to the data tree.
5) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40609)
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. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
6) 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.
7) Exposed dangerous method or function (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42794)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to Tomcat's internal fork of a Commons FileUpload included an unreleased, in progress refactoring that exposed a potential denial of service on Windows. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service attack by uploading multiple files to the server that are not removed.
8) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45648)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation when parsing HTTP trailer headers. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.
9) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42795)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when recycling various internal objects. A remote attacker can force Tomcat to skip some parts of the recycling process leading to information leaking from the current request/response to the next.
