Description
This security bulletin contains information about 21 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Expected behavior violation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28322)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a logic error when sending HTTP POST and PUT requests using the same handle. The libcurl can erroneously use the read callback (CURLOPT_READFUNCTION) to ask for data to send, even when the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS option has been set, if the same handle previously was used to issue a PUT request which used that callback. As a result, the application can misbehave and either send off the wrong data or use memory after free or similar in the second transfer.
2) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28834)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a side-channel attack when using the gnutls_privkey_sign_data2 API function with the "GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_REPRODUCIBLE" flag. A remote attacker can launch Minerva attack and gain access to sensitive information.
3) Missing authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-1488)
The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to missing authorization in the unbound.service that listens on localhost on port 8953. A local user can send a specially crafted request and alter the server configuration.
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) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-0553)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform timing attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the response times to malformed ciphertexts in RSA-PSK ClientKeyExchange differ from response times of ciphertexts with correct PKCS#1 v1.5 padding. A remote attacker can perform timing sidechannel attack in RSA-PSK key exchange.
Note, the vulnerability exists due to incomplete fox for #VU83316 (CVE-2023-5981).
6) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-52425)
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 parsing large tokens. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-50868)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing DNSSEC related records. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion by forcing the DNS server to query a specially crafted DNSSEC zone and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-50387)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing DNSSEC related records. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion by forcing the DNS server to query a specially crafted DNSSEC zone and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
9) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-46218)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in curl that allows a malicious HTTP server to set "super cookies" that are then passed back to more origins than what is otherwise allowed or possible. A remote attacker can force curl to send such cookie to different and unrelated sites and domains.
10) External control of file name or path (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-38546)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to inject arbitrary cookies into request.
The vulnerability exists due to the way cookies are handled by libcurl. If a transfer has cookies enabled when the handle is duplicated, the
cookie-enable state is also cloned - but without cloning the actual
cookies. If the source handle did not read any cookies from a specific
file on disk, the cloned version of the handle would instead store the
file name as none (using the four ASCII letters, no quotes).
none - if such a file exists and is readable in the current directory of the program using libcurl. 11) Improper Privilege Management (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26604)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper privilege management for some Sudo configurations, e.g., plausible sudoers files in which the "systemctl status" command may be executed. Specifically, systemd does not set LESSSECURE to 1, and thus other programs may be launched from the less program. This presents a substantial security risk when running systemctl from Sudo, because less executes as root when the terminal size is too small to show the complete systemctl output.
12) Open redirect (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26159)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect victims to arbitrary URL.
The vulnerability exists due to improper sanitization of user-supplied data within the url.parse() function. A remote attacker can create a link that leads to a trusted website, however, when clicked, redirects the victim to arbitrary domain.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to perform a phishing attack and steal potentially sensitive information.
13) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-7104)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the sessionReadRecord() function in ext/session/sqlite3session.c when processing a corrupt changeset. A remote user can send a specially crafted request to trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or perform a denial of service attack.
14) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4408)
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 parsing DNS messages. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
15) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48624)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the close_altfile() function in filename.c. A remote attacker can trick the victim into using a specially crafted argument for the less command and execute arbitrary OS commands on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
16) Improper Privilege Management (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4415)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper privilege management when handling coredumps in coredump/coredump.c. A local user can gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability affects systems with libacl support.
17) Off-by-one (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3821)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an off-by-one error within the format_timespan() function in time-util.c. A local user can trigger an off-by-one error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
18) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-43618)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in mpz/inp_raw.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger integer overflow and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
19) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28849)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to credentials are shared via headers when following cross-domain redirects. A remote attacker can gain access to sensitive information.
20) 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.
21) 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.
