Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Heap-based buffer over-read

EUVDB-ID: #VU11834

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 7.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-6798

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information or execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The weakness exists due to heap-based buffer over-read. A local attacker can exploit a specially crafted locale dependent regular expression, trigger memory corruption and gain access to potentially sensitive information or run Perl code.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

Mitigation

Update the affected package perl to the latest version.

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

2) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU11835

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 7.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-6913

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause DoS condition or execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The weakness exists due to heap-based buffer overflow. A local attacker can exploit a specially crafted pack() function, trigger memory corruption and cause the service to crash or run Perl code.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

Mitigation

Update the affected package perl to the latest version.
