Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) 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.


2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39325)

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

The vulnerability exists due to excessive consumption of internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests. A remote attacker can bypass the http2.Server.MaxConcurrentStreams setting by creating new connections while the current connections are still being processed, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21501)

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

The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application when used on the backend and with the style attribute allowed. A remote attacker can enumerate files on the system, including project dependencies.


4) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-1394)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak in the RSA encrypting/decrypting code when handling untrusted input. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform denial of service attack.


5) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24786)

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

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when parsing data in an invalid JSON format within the protojson.Unmarshal() function. A remote attacker can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


6) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28180)

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 decompressing JWE with Decrypt or DecryptMulti. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
