Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to perform cross-site scripting, cache poisoning or session hijacking attacks.


13) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-29409)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to verifying certificate chains containing large RSA keys is slow. A remote attacker can cause a client/server to expend significant CPU time verifying signatures.


14) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39533)

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


15) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-50570)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop. A local user can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


16) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48631)

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. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

17) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-20861)

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