Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-22102)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Connector/J component in MySQL Connectors. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code.
2) Inadequate encryption strength (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48795)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect implementation of the SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP), which mishandles the handshake phase and the use of sequence numbers. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack and delete the SSH2_MSG_EXT_INFO message sent before authentication starts, allowing the attacker to disable a subset of the keystroke timing obfuscation features introduced in OpenSSH 9.5.
The vulnerability was dubbed "Terrapin attack" and it affects both client and server implementations.
3) Excessive Iteration (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4043)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to built-in support for parsing numbers with large scale in Java has a number of edge cases where the input text of a number can lead to much larger processing time than one would expect. A remote attacker can trigger excessive iteration and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
