Description

This security bulletin contains information about 14 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) 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.


2) 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.


3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-30556)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when processing HTTP requests in mod_lua with websockets. A remote attacker can force the module to return lengths to applications calling r:wsread() that point past the end of the storage allocated for the buffer and gain access to sensitive information.


4) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2650)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when processing OCSP, PKCS7/SMIME, CMS, CMP/CRMF or TS subsystems with no message size limit. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) 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.


6) 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.


7) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-22045)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Hotspot component in Oracle GraalVM for JDK. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to gain access to sensitive information.


8) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-22049)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Libraries component in Oracle GraalVM for JDK. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.


9) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4807)

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 within the POLY1305 MAC (message authentication code) implementation. A remote attacker can send specially crafted input to the application and corrupt MM registers on Windows 64 platform, resulting in a denial of service condition.


10) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3446)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the DH_check(), DH_check_ex() and EVP_PKEY_param_check() function when processing a DH key or DH parameters. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


11) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-30522)

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

The vulnerability exists due to mod_sed does not properly control consumption of internal resources, if the web server is configured to do transformations with mod_sed in contexts where the input to mod_sed may be very large. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


12) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0466)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an error within the X509_VERIFY_PARAM_add0_policy() function, which does not perform the certificate policy check despite being implicitly enabled. A remote attacker can bypass expected security restrictions and perform MitM attack.


13) Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0465)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an error when validating certificate policies in leaf certificates. A remote attacker that controls a malicious CA server can issue a certificate that will be validated by the application.


14) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3817)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when checking the long DH keys. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
