Description
This security bulletin contains information about 11 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4321)
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 HTML content in Autofill. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and crash the browser.
2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0215)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the BIO_new_NDEF function. A remote attacker can trigger a use-after-free error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-0778)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop within the BN_mod_sqrt() function when processing an ASN.1 certificate that contains elliptic curve public keys in compressed form or explicit elliptic curve parameters with a base point encoded in compressed form. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted certificate to the TLS server or client, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23840)
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 during EVP_CipherUpdate, EVP_EncryptUpdate and EVP_DecryptUpdate calls. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0286)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error related to X.400 address processing inside an X.509 GeneralName. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a type confusion error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack or read memory contents.
In most cases, the attack requires the attacker to provide both the certificate chain and CRL, neither of which need to have a valid signature. If the attacker only controls one of these inputs, the other input must already contain an X.400 address as a CRL distribution point, which is uncommon. As such, this vulnerability is most likely to only affect applications which have implemented their own functionality for retrieving CRLs over a network.
6) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3712)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when processing ASN.1 strings related to a confusion with NULL termination of strings in array. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application to trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0732)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of large prime values by the affected software during key agreement operations in a Transport Layer Security (TLS) handshake using an Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (DHE) based cipher suite. A remote attacker can send a large prime value from a malicious OpenSSL server to a targeted OpenSSL client and cause the client to stop responding while generating a key for the prime value.
8) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1971)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error. A remote attacker can trigger denial of service conditions via the API functions TS_RESP_verify_response and TS_RESP_verify_token). If an attacker can control both items being compared then that attacker could trigger a crash. For example if the attacker can trick a client or server into checking a malicious certificate against a malicious CRL then this may occur. Note that some applications automatically download CRLs based on a URL embedded in a certificate. This checking happens prior to the signatures on the certificate and CRL being verified. OpenSSL's s_server, s_client and verify tools have support for the "-crl_download" option which implements automatic CRL downloading and this attack has been demonstrated to work against those tools. Note that an unrelated bug means that affected versions of OpenSSL cannot parse or construct correct encodings of EDIPARTYNAME. However it is possible to construct a malformed EDIPARTYNAME that OpenSSL's parser will accept and hence trigger this attack.
9) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-1559)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to decrypt sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to the way an application behaves, when it receives a 0-byte record with invalid padding compared to the record with an invalid MAC, which results in padding oracle. A remote attacker can decrypt data.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that the application is using "non-stitched" ciphersuites and calls SSL_shutdown() twice (first, via a BAD_RECORD_MAC and again via a CLOSE_NOTIFY).10) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0737)
The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.The weakness exists in the RSA key generation algorithm's BN_mod_inverse() and BN_mod_exp_mont() functions due to a cache timing side channel attack. A local attacker can recover the private key.
11) Carry propagation issue (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3736)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to decrypt data.The vulnerability exists due to carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring procedure (bn_sqrx8x_internal). A remote attacker can decrypt encrypted data. The vulnerability affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
