Description
This security bulletin contains information about 8 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34478)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and bypass authentication process, when used together with APIs or other web frameworks that route requests based on non-normalized requests.
2) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1471)
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 within the SnakeYaml's Constructor() class. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted yaml content to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
3) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41854)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when parsing untrusted YAML files. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted YAML file, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger out-of-bounds write and perform a denial of service attack.
4) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-38752)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when handling YAML files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted YAML file to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-38751)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted YAML input. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted YAML file to the application, trigger out-of-bounds write and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-38750)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when handling YAML files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted YAML file to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.7) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-38749)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when handling YAML files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted YAML file to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.8) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-25857)
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 YAML files. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
